The Wolverines come to Badger Country...

Badgers are 0-3 from beyond the arc. Nothing unusual, there.
Dickinson goes down, in a heap, after screening Davison. Hmmm! Ruled a basketball play by the refs.
Shouldnβt Bucky be really handling them?? It seems Bucky always lets teams hang around, and the game is always a nail biter. π‘
Hepburn fouled on the lay up. Makes the FT.
Hepburn puts the Badgers up by 5. Michigan time out.
Vogt getting cute. Not a good idea to try to dunk it from the foul line. Especially if your name isn't Dr. J.
Michigan dominating on the boards, 21-11. Bucky up by 1. Neither team has made a 3, yet.
31 all, at the end of the 1st half.
Bucky is 0-6, from three point land. All Bucky's points were made in the paint, so far. Michigan has one 3 pointer.
Michael Finley gets his number retired, at half time. A great Badger!
Michigan starts the 2nd half with a 7-0 run. Time out, Bucky.
Davison finally on the board, with a 3!
Goal tending penalty not called on Michigan. That fired up the crowd!
Wahl with a great save!
Offensive foul on Davis! Bad call!
Gard needs to get in the refsβ faces after these bad/non calls. You gotta believe Izzo or Krzyzewski would be apoplectic .
Carlson cannot handle the ball.
And 1 for Davis!
Time to milk the clock and wrap this up.
Good winβ¦β¦ crowd seemed into it.
Hepburn! 3!
Great adjustment on Dickinson in the second half. He was their entire offense and they took him completely out of it. Folks here in Michigan were starting to talk big, glad to see them put in their place.
Bucky goes to 21-5...
Final score Wisconsin 77, Michigan 63.
Juwan Howard throws a punch at Krabbenhoft!!! Everybody swinging! Suspend the psycho!
That. Was. AWESOME!
Howard and Diabote will be suspended that for sure.
WTF, Juwan Howard. Could have started a brawl. He should be gone for the regular season.
Heβs going to be taking a vacation after that. What an idiot
No clue why Howard would be that upset at a TO there. All bench players not looking good against a decent team. What am I missing ?
Just wait. That asshole is going to lie and accuse Krab of dropping an N-Bomb.
And that damn Howard should be suspended the rest of the season. π€¬ π€¬ π€¬

Video of Howard being a total idiot!
He was mad because the whole country now knows he canβt coach worth a shit without a roster full of future NBA players.
Why am I not surprised? Howardβs always acted like that, all the way back to his playing days.
Seems pretty weak to get that upset about Gard taking a TO late in the game. Was he mad about Davison elbowing one of his guys, or getting blown out?
All I know is heβs lucky it didnβt turn into another Malice in the Palace. Very easily could have escalated.
What's with the Fab 5's issues with time outs?
No matter what happened between Gard and Howard, there is no excuse for Howard hitting/slapping Krabbenhoft. Typical "tough guy" stuff too - throwing a punch at a guy with 3 other people between you.
He threatened to kill Mark Turgeon last year and charged at him. Gard grabbed his arm to talk to him, Howard grabbed Gard by his shirt, and then it deescalated between the two of them. Then for some reason Howard decided to punch Krabbenhoft.
If you look at Twitter right now, a majority of black media members are defending him claiming that Gard invaded his personal space. Howard will probably survive this because he can recruit 5-star guys but also because the racial part of "having to defend himself from a white man trying to intimidate him by grabbing his forearm" will get played up. It already is. Never mind that Howard is eight inches taller than Gard. If the roles were reversed, Gard wouldn't even make it out of the locker room tonight without being fired.
Why did Michigan put on a full court press on the Badger bench players? I think that is what Gard was asking Howard. I'd take a TO too to get my guys ready.
