Huskers @ Bucky

Telegraphed that pass. Turnover.

Hepburn forces a turnover only to lose it at the other end.

The Wahl Machine is on!

Pretty good start for Bucky.  Up 10 at the under 12 time out.   Even Conner rattled in a 3.

Essegian in. Drains a 3!

Lookin’ real good.  

And other Conner 3 and then a steal and lay  up by McGee.

Bucky up 13, now.

ESSEGIAN!!! 3!!!!

McGee foul was close to being an offensive foul.

Wahl, with the ball, under the hoop, is money!

A late 3 cuts Bucky lead to 13 at the half. . 

Bucky up 51-38 at the half.  Keep up the pressure on Nebraska. The Huskers can score a lot of points, in a hurry, as we saw, in their win over Indiana.

Hepburn drains a 3 to start the 2nd half!

What is amazing is Badgers score 51 in the 1st half with only 2 from Crowl and 0 from Klesmit.

Nebraska is playing well on D, so far, this half.

Blackwell for 3!

Not a big fan of Blackwell's ball handling skills. He just ran out of bounds, with the ball and before, his legs turned to jello, when he turned it over. I want Essegian getting more of his minutes.

Nice feed to Winter, in the paint, for a 2 and 1.

Storr needs to wake up.

Winter gets called for a reach-in foul, but he is playing hard!

Nebraska's Gary gets his 4th foul.

ESSEGIAN!!!

CROWL!!!! 3!!!

Stupid announcers must not know what bleach is.

Hoiberg bleeding like a stuck pig, all over the paint at the Kohl Center. Clean up time.

Nice feed by Chucky to Blackwell!

Nice cut and reverse lay up by Blackwell.

Chucky to the hoop!!!

Back up by 19. Less than 8 minutes left.

Lots of weapons on this Badger team.  I can’t remember a team with this many potential scorers.

KLESMIT!!! 3!!!

WAHL!!! 3!!!

Wisconsin's Defense was really good today.

Yeeehaaaa, just wiped the floor with the corn dogs.   

72-88 BADGERS WIN!

Really nice win.  I thought that Nebraska's defense was supposed to be vastly improved, but it sure didn't seem like it.  As for Essegian, while it was nice to see him knock down some shots, Blackwell just gives them a lot more from that position (and you were right, Tundra, it was a bad turnover).

Badgers could make a big jump in the polls.   #16 Clemson lost and currently #19 James Madison and #17 Florida Atlantic both losing, tho only in 1st half.

Whomever had Connor's 2023-24 slump breakout game vs Nebraska on their bingo sheet, come claim your prize.
