Oh come on .Yeah they are good but I watched the game Vs Oregon .They were TIED with 5 minutes to go and Oregon just completely fell apart ....Missed layups ,rushed shots, NO and I mean NO discipline at all............. just street ball galore and Oregon just gave that one away. They LOST that game IMO as opposed to Wiscy just clamping down on d. It was more just futility and poor judgment by the Ducks

Wiscy is good we can beat em even with No Meeks


GO HEELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
If Moo can beat Villanova, we can DEFINITELY beat Wisky. They aren't exactly World Beaters.

33-3 and a 1-seed. Not exactly a dog with flees either
 
This is like every other game we have played this year, with the exception of UK- if we play to potential for 40 minutes, we will beat anyone's best game.

However, this team has a tough time playing to potential for 20 minutes, so asking them to go 40 seems a bit of a stretch.
 
The thought of Hicks on Kaminsky makes me want to vomit.

I think the key will be in we can force turnovers. If we can control the uptempo pace by forcing live turnovers it will be huge. If we get stuck into a half court game we can't beat them, they are too much of a well oiled machine.
 
Can't afford to have the bad version of any of the Juniors to show up and need some energy and playmaking from the freshmen. Might need Paige's best game of the year, although i'd like to have that against UKlan if we somehow met them.

That's the best option we have IMO. Meeks and James are far too slow footed to deal with Frank The Tank. He'll push hicks around some but at least he's got good athleticism.

I totally agree. I would like to see us trapping or running and jumping at ball handlers. If we sit back and allow them to do what they do, they'll beat us. Because they aren't going to make unforced errors. You have to force them into playing a style they're not comfortable with.

But like Key stated above, I wasn't overly impressed with them yesterday against Oregon. I agree that Oregon really played poorly down the stretch. A more thoughtful team could have made that game super close.

And I also agree with 71-00. If we play to our potential, we can beat Wisconsin and most every other team in the tournament. But we'll have to play smart, hard and most of all, for a full 40 minutes if we expect to beat the Badgers.
 
I agree- The Badgers won't beat themselves where that has been our MO most of the year. The guys are closing better, so if we can play from the front that will be huge.

Not exactly a dog with escapes from danger? [fleas*]

This is the game in a nutshell. Well stated. I feel that you've touched on why this season's team's play has frustrated us so much -- the talent is there to win virtually every game we play; it's just the consistency and execution that is lacking at key moments.
 
We cannot give up a 24-2 run at a critical time. We need to protect the ball and maximize scoring opportunities nothing else left to do buy play the game.
 
Wisky is a very good team and has one of the best coaches in the business. With that in mind we have a great team with great athletes and a HOF coach ourselves ! All comes down to executes on game day ! Good Luck Heels make us proud !
