MBB vs Wisconsin @ 8:30

They just said the Badgers have trouble putting the ball in the basket….of course they said the same thing about Nebraska, so we may have just been jinxed again.

Not sure why we’re starting Wynter again.
Agree but since he starting, I definitely run a couple sets to get him some shots early. If he makes them great, if he doesn’t then I know to not playing much the rest of the game.
 
Our two point offense is absolute cheeks. Wisky puts on a master class how to smoothly get the ball into the paint. Amazing how much of a struggle it is for us
 
Our team seemingly has gotten worse defensively or just weren't very good at it to begin with....just not able to muscle up

Usually our bigs get dominated but tonight it's the cutters. Our guards aren't stopping them.

Is Dread hurt or just riding the bench because he has been a liability all yr?
 
Wynter looking good…I guess that’s why he started. 29-26 Wisconsin. They just keep backing our guys to the basket and drawing fouls or making the bucket.

I assume he's benched.

It's not good how our defenders are getting backed down in the paint. It's tough to play defense when you allow your opponent to get within 4' of the basket.

Embarrassing....Wisky is just shouldering us in the paint with no resistance.

Season is over with a loss IMO...glad we have come out with a solid first half...this is ridiculous.
 
This team doesn't deserve to be in the tournament. They are playing like they know that ship has sailed.
 
Down 35-29 at the half…I swear you could put a high school team in Wisconsin uniforms and they would beat us. I think they said before the game that we’ve lost to them 19 out of the last 20 games we’ve played.
 
Several posters here are acting like complete Ass-Holes. It's a BB game folks, get a grip! It's supposed to be fun and if you can't have fun watching turn it off, and definitely stop posting all the negative stuff.

We're lucky to be within 6. They aren't playing like a team fighting for their life.

The stats show 5 TOs but it feels like more. Clary's 2 offensive fouls really hurt. Lundy get 2 fouls early hurt.

Pickett 4 pts
Lundy 5 pts
Funk 3 pts

Opponents have really focused to keeping Pickett out of the paint. When he can't get low it's more difficult to kick out to the 3 pt shooters. Dread has mental problems and Lundy was on the bench so we're left with one 3pt shooter.

We're fans who would like to be able to beat weak teams at home. ESPN gave us a 71% chance even after the debacle at Nebraska.

Lol I know right? Sorry it's not fun getting our tails kicked again by one of the more pedestrian Wisky teams in yrs.

Hire a PROVEN WINNING HEAD COACH.
And no...this guy is not a proven winning HEAD COACH.
 
Dread looks heavy and out of shape...it's like he never came into the season physically ready. In essence, he has lost his job and is getting less and less time....pretty disappointing when he is a 1K scorer we were relying on

Clary's fouls are inexcusable....1 maybe...2 no way. Shrew was passed.

Funk is a total defensive liability...has given up more than he has scored. Missed 3s and a lay up. Need him.

Jalen just not on tonight....yet.

All this and still in it.

Go Lions!

Cut it down to 2, then in two trips up the floor Wisconsin got it back up to 7….now it’s 42-38.

Jalen is 3-10….not like him. Hope he gets it rolling soon.

Yep, i get it, but it's sports and supposed to be fun.Just stop being so effing negative.
 
47-43 Wisconsin….and Wisconsin just picked up about 4 fouls in a minute. Funk going to the line to shoot one and one.
 
And Funk
And Lundy

Now would be the time with Crowl on the bench.
And, surprisingly, we are shooting free throws the rest of the way. Need to find a way to get a win....despite playing so poorly. We haven't found ways to win often the last few weeks...better start tonight.
 
Weak Offensive Fouls on Clary, Jalen and now Funk= 4 wasted possessions down 4....

Johnson seems lost. Bad foul late in click. Small things magnified in close games.

We gotta clean it up. Bonus for rest of way...maybe we adjust our sets to try and draw more contact vs gunning?

Fortunate that Crowl is on bench and we have a shot. Let's close one (please!)

Roar!
