Green Bay @ Wisconsin – 8 pm on Big Ten Network (*)
The Badgers may have some revenge on their mind tonight as they welcome the Green Bay Phoenix to the Kohl Center. Green Bay won last year’s game at home in overtime behind Bryquis Perine’s 22 points, their first win over Wisconsin in 16 attempts. The Phoenix are just 3-6 against D1 competition this year under first year coach Brian Wardle but shouldn’t be intimidated in this game having already faced Marquette and San Diego State this season. Wisconsin knocked off rival Marquette in Milwaukee on Saturday led by Jordan Taylor. The Badger point guard scored 21 points as Wisconsin picked up a key road victory. Green Bay is going to be severely undersized in this game with just one key player taller than 6’6. Freshman Alec Brown is seven feet tall but just 215 pounds, making him vulnerable to the stronger and more experienced Keaton Nankivil and Jon Leuer. Senior Rahmon Fletcher is Green Bay’s best player, averaging 17 PPG on 49% shooting. The 5’10 Fletcher actually scored 18 points against top-15 San Diego State so we’re sure Bo Ryan knows he can play. Wisconsin will stick to their deliberate system and try to grind this game out against the weak Phoenix defense, ranked just #277 in defensive efficiency. Taylor and Leuer almost certainly will take advantage of that for the home squad. Green Bay may keep this close early but Wisconsin’s superior talent, rebounding and defense will eventually wear down the Phoenix giving the Badgers another comfortable home win in the friendly confines of the Kohl Center.

NCAA Basketball
The NCAA Basketball season had perhaps one of it’s most memorable years when a mid-major school made the NCAA Championship game.
Butler, who plays in the Horizon League with Wright State, fell just two points short of beating Duke for the NCAA Title, although the Bulldogs lost, it made a strong case for the Horizon in years to come.
