RUTGERS ! ! !; 3/6/15, 11:25 AM
traditionalguy said...: That's what they need; a five foot five inch gerbil driver. The Seven footers couldn't even see him except maybe the top of his head going by.; 3/6/15, 11:41 AM

Wilbur said...: Congratulations to the Badgers. They are a strong squad.

My favorite non-Illini Big Ten team was probably that Iowa team from around 69-70. Downtown Fred Brown, John Johnson, Stick Vidnovic - averaged over 100 a game and was just great to watch. They won the Big Ten one year in the Rick Mount era, no mean feat.; 3/6/15, 12:13 PM

Badgers are in good shape.; 3/6/15, 2:54 PM
Big Mike said...: @garage, I didn't say they weren't. But I think Maryland is the better team if you are in a one-loss-and-you-go-home tournament.; 3/6/15, 3:34 PM
wendybar said...: I pick the Badgers every year in my pool (I'm in NJ) because that is my Grandmothers maiden name!! haha!! They ARE going to win this year!!!!; 3/6/15, 5:03 PM
Meade said...: I'd be happy to see the Badgers and Turtles in the final game with Wisconsin winning its second National Championship, tying it with San Francisco and only 3 behind Indiana.; 3/6/15, 7:39 PM

DrSquid said...: Badgers are talented, well coached, battle tested and play almost error free. Congratulations to them on their great season. They may be the only Big Ten team I can't find any reason to despise. As a Kentucky Wildcat fan they are the team I least want to see in the NCAA tourney. You can add to their ability a big chip on the shoulder from last year's final four 1 point loss to UK. I'm sure they are eager for a re-match.

But then, remember the old saying "Be careful what you wish for, you just might get what you want"; 3/6/15, 9:48 PM
