Kind of a weird game. Looked like we could coast to a pretty easy win and then Minnesota come out of the 2nd half and hit 6 threes. Then they built another nice lead late in the 2nd when Minnesota looked incompetent just to go on a scoring drought and have to claw a victory.

Watching the game on the Fox Sports app on my Shield. Broadcast tonight is in 4K/HDR and goddamn. I can't wait until everything is.

No idea what happens in March obviously, but this is certainly my favorite Badger team since the FF bunch. These guys are so much fun.

Hyped up for a week and Badgers had control for 95% of the game. This team is great.

2.5 pt faves at home was disrespectful

First sweep of MSU in two decades is kinda wild. They're just always so solid.

Undrafted free agent in 2 years

With the landscape of ncaab this year, where it seems like any team could lose at anytime, I feel like this team definitely has the highest ceiling post nigel/bronson gard squads. Now they could lose in the 2nd round, but thats just the way this year is.

Still boggles my mind a team spent a top ten draft pick on Johnny Davis.

The books learned long ago (unfortunately) to trust the computers.

Having said that, I took Wisconsin heavy (for me).

The most fortuitous thing for Davis was that he started out on fire from 3 probably flukily in his sophomore year. He faded down the stretch but it left enough of taste for a scout or GM to believe maybe it was legit. It was not.

Storr is not even **** around in pretending that he's a good 3 point shooter yet.

In the last five games he's had games where he's put up 4, 7, and 8 3FG attempts. He shot 40% from three last season. My guess is he thinks he's good.

40% on limited shots as a freshman.

I'm not saying he's bad, but he's not NBA good at 3s.

I'd love to be wrong, of course. I'd love it if he makes a run with a blaze of fire through the NCAAs and rides off to the NBA. His form on his shot at least feels like they shouldn't be going in that often.
