Illini fans are holding signs that say "We've got the better dairy air!"
Davison drawing a lot of boos when he has the ball. That should fire him up!

I think Davison would struggle to play on the road if he didn't get booed. At this point, I think he feeds off of it.

Can confirm.
Depending on which way the wind blows, the southern part of campus can be RIPE as they have the main experimental ag farm just east of Assembly Hall
Bucky 0-6 on 3 pointers. Somebody needs to knock one down.
Wisconsin has made 0 3's but has made 8 FTs, so far.
Only 3 turnovers and hitting 8-9 on FT is keeping Badgers in the game. Keys for 2nd half, hit some 3's, get some scoring from Hepburn, Davison and Davis need to shoot at least 45%.
And make it a bit harder for the big fella
We haven't hit any 3's yet, and we are only down by 4 points.

It's amazing that 30 years ago, Cockburn would have been a top 10 pick. Now he'll be lucky to bounce around the G league for a few years.

He kind of reminds me of Zion Williamson.
Not sure Bucky could shoot any worse considering they are getting good looks
Davis draws the foul after missing his shot.
Bowman hits a 3! 1st Badger 3 in 13 attempts.
I've never seen the Badgers' shooting this cold.
Wow. Badgers lose 80-67. Spartans up next. Illinois takes over 1st place in the Big 10 conference.
Davison held scoreless in the 2nd half. 
Badger FT Davison 1-1 and Davis 11-14. That's it, nobody else attempted a FT.
Bowman, Davis and Hepburn each had one made 3. No one else came close to making a 3.

Zion can handle the ball.
Given where he was three years ago, it's amazing now that Zion is on a trajectory to be the next Greg Oden/Sam Bowie. Oden and Bowie just had some bad luck with leg injuries. There wasn't much they could do about it. Zion has some bad luck with leg injuries too, but he needs to get serious and lose about 40 pounds. He has some control over his leg problems if he could do that, but I doubt he will.
Bowie was drafted over Jordan. Oden was drafted over Durant. Zion was drafted over Ja Morant. Morant may not get to top 10 all-time like Jordan or Durant, but he's well on his way to a HOF career.
