Crowl leads the Badgers scorers with 13. Max Klesmit and Nolan Winter each have 9 points. Brooks II and McCaffrey lead the Bulldogs with 13 and 10, respectively.
Gard ought to be familiar with how Butler's HC leads his team. Butler's HC is Thad Matta, formerly of Ohio State.
Badgers are 17 for 17 from the line.
Winter with some solid D, on Butler's big man, Screen, under the hoop.

Badgers are 22-23 from the line. Where the hell was this, in past seasons?
With the 2 big guys playing like Walton and Kareem and setting a free throw record they just manage to beat a team that is probably about 10th(if that) in the Big 10.
A win is a win butâĶ.
Bucky goes on to win 83-74
Badgers win it. 83-74. Badgers are now, 9-3.
All 5 starters in double figures. Winter with 20 points and 8 rebounds. Crowl finally comes alive with 18 points and 6 rebounds. .
Is that what you call complimentary Basketball? Their Defense helped keep the butler down as well.

GREAT question. If they can keep that kind of percentage up I wouldn't want to face them.
Badgers crashed in the rankings. The victory over Butler didn't help at all. Now # 37 in the AP Poll and #35 in the Coaches Poll. No where to go but up again, I hope.
