In reply to IUMIKE1.

Amazing how “‘ol Bo” and his “play them tough and slow” style gets under our collective skins. Have to admit the guy is a genius at getting the most out of what he’s got. That said…I REALLY want us to kick their Badger *&%# in B-town. Guess I just proved my own point):

Don’t care who they have back or don’t have back, don’t care what the margin of victory ends up being, don’t care what the amount of points we score is, don’t care where it’s played at or anything else, JUST FREAKIN’ BEAT BO AND HIS LITTLE BAND OF BUCKIES !!!!!!!!!!!

In reply to Ole Man. IU has better athletes, they just need to start pressing and speed the game up. Take WI out of their plodding game plan.

In reply to Oldguyy. Might be just as interesting to see NV trying to handle Dekker in half court.?? Good match-up...one season of B-10 experiences I think gives Wis a slight advantage here.

In reply to Andrew Walker. Dammit Andrew. I was about to say how happy I was that I wouldn't have to see Sideshow Bob any longer and damned if you don't post a pic of his ugly puss.

In reply to CreamandCrimson. Agreed. Bruesewitz was definitely their Dane Fife-spark-plug-type player, and Berggren was surprisingly good at defending the interior. I think he caught Cody off guard and overwhelmed him quite a bit in our matchups last year. I'm glad he finally graduated, but Dekker and Evans both look to be the new irritation for us. Thankfully, the team does looks to be small for a Badgers squad, and hopefully we can exploit the lack of size.

In reply to Ole Man. Yeah, Bo is in his head for some reason, going all the way back to Crean's time at Marquette.

I like Bo. He is steady, does it the right way, graduates his players… and yes I spent some time in Madison and love UW. I think they finish in the top 4. I think they always have trouble in the NCAAs because the system Bo has does not draw the biggest recruits. He always has one star – and Dekker fits that role. Wish them the best.
I prefer CTC over Bo. CTC gets better players and his system will lead to more success in the NCAA. I like IUs chances next yr if Vonleh stays.

In reply to And_One. And it should be fun to watch Vonleh posting up Dekker.

In reply to Gregory Spera. If we were completely healthy we might have won. Wis wears you down with bodies. Part of their strategy, bang players around helps even the talent gap.

Look forward to seeing Wis do well in the Big then eventually underachieve in the tournament again.

Luke Fischer. The “Fisch” that got away. He will play a big part this year, the year we finally beat Bucky.

In reply to Gregory Spera.

We had an “overwhelming” talent edge last year.
Not picking on CTC.
Some teams just have your “number”.
