Even it really becomes that tomorrow, it was a great ride.
Like the Packers in Seattle, really don't expect Bucky to win but if they get out ahead in the game, I'll have to make sure I have plenty of Captain, Fireball and Aspirin to stave off the heart attack n stroke
Fun times.
F'em Bucky !!
Arizona is a tough draw no matter how you slice it.  It seems they always find 6'7" to 6'9" guys that are athletic and can defend and this team is loaded. 

My biggest concerns are Arizona won't have the same defensive breakdowns as UNC and Sean Miller is a great X and O guy. 

The key in this game is Koenig cannot get into foul trouble and Bucky needs to get back on transition D.  I would also get Frank involved very early to test the AZ defense and get the Wildcats to defend him out on the perimeter.  The drive penetration game will be tough against AZ because they pack the lane and they have a lot of length to contest shots and guard around the rim.

Miller is a much better game coach than Williams (IMO) and Bucky needs to play a lot better than they have the last three games if they want any shot at the Final Four. Need another performance from Frank like he had last year against them and Hayes can't have another off game.

 

Extremely difficult game but if Bucky plays like they're capable of they'll get the win.

Koenig's got his hands full today. He needs to play like he did against Trice in that B1G Final. He was lighting it up when they needed it. He's been off the last couple games.

 

And Kaminsky still represents the biggest factor and mismatch. The AZ starting 5 is said to be the best in the country (according to someone who apparently has not been watching Kentucky or Duke). Need more bench contributions today. Dujan and Showy and Jax.... if they get a boost from these guys it'll take pressure off the starters to be perfect.

 

Big test today. I think they're up to it.

Once again the Badgers best ball will come in the second half. I feel they are playing better than they did against Carolina but the opposition is better too.  They were down 3 at the half last year too and still came back. Bo is a great halftime adjuster.
