Just an observation on my part.
In the first game, WI did not play bad, we made them play badly.
I think, of course assuming we play well, we will make them look even worse. And, we are playing FAR better than when we met them a couple of weeks ago.
In the first game, we lost at the tail end when we did not shoot well.
I hope you are right. Here are my concerns.
1. Happ was in foul trouble. If he is not in foul trouble this game, he is a force that we didn't contend with.
2. Every team that plays Wisconsin makes Wisconsin look bad. But they also look bad. It is part of Wisconsin's game. I am biased by remembering Wisconsin final four team from 1999-2000, where they held eventual champs michigan state to 53 points. Every Wisconsin tournament game has been painful to watch, I can remember games that struggled to get into the 40s. Lots of missed shots, lots of slow boring games. That is Wisconsin basketball
3. Despite everything, we were getting crushed by Wisconsin for most of the game. This is the only bright spot. Hopefully, the way we finished sets us up to know how to play them better.
Ultimately I agree with RML. I think we can win every game on our schedule. But, I think this is the toughest win.
