I think the key to the game is slow play - I think Wisconsin can beat any team because they're used to taking 140 shots it's okay to be hitting about 50% of them. Playing at Wisconsin's pace they'll probably only get about 100 shots which means a low scoring FG percentage will kill Davidson.

Davidson scored 20 pts off of Hoya turnovers. The Badgers need to take care of the ball. Also, don't forget Curry was in massive foul trouble all game, so foul trouble cuts both ways.

The Badgers historically do not foul their opponents to allow for that many free throws.

Finally, with the new stadium seatings, the shooting backdrop could very well be a mess for guys like Curry and Bohannon. This game is going to be won in the paint, and with Landry and Butch, Wisconsin will get a lot of interior buckets.

I felt we had a better chance v Davidson, but not by much over Georgetown. I still feel that way.

68-52.

TR makes a good point about the shooting background but I don't think Curry has seen anyone like Flowers, eiter. I'm not that worried. I see a close game for a half and then Bucky dominates.

On the baseball front: I didn't think I would have to say this so soon but.....

YOST IS TOAST!

baseball?? Que es eso?

Brewer fans can keep their title hopes on the shelves especially with the Cubs rolling out Ryan Dumpster and Jason Marquis in their rotation, plus Kerry Freaking Wood closing.

No if you will excuse me, I need to go throw up.
