Terps at Bucky

UW was 12-21 from the line. Nothing is falling for them right now.

Happ leading the break after a turnover....no.  3 times in the first half.  Nothing t show for it

OMGOSH......Bucky ahead???  Oh my........   

now that was a good win.....  

What a great win for the Badgers with so much on the line and considering how they've played the past few games, they took it to Maryland to win by 11. GO BUCKY!!!

Agree, a nice and needed win that hopefully will provide a confidence boost. Tale of two halves. 

Koenig made a couple of big plays. Pritzle had some good minutes off the bench, Hayes was much more aggressive on O and played a good overall game.  When the shots go in a team looks a lot better.....funny how that works.  Vitto is a good singer.

props to Coach Gard for getting them back on track.

After 5 bad halves of basketball, they played a good one and took home the win.  Hopefully this is a turning point . 

When you consider they shot 2-12 from 3pt range and missed 16 FTs and still won by double digits that's an impressive win. 

Koenig and Printzl gave them a spark and Hayes basically took over in the second half after Happ got into foul trouble.  

When UW commits to take the ball inside and to the rack inside of settling for outside shots they are tough to handle.  Happ and Hayes basically did whatever they wanted and they killed Maryland on the glass.

Good points.

My take:  Pritzl is starting to play like a Showalter Part II.   Trice is getting some confidence,, too.  I am hoping that Iverson will plahy with more consistency.   Agree that Gard righted the ship a bit.   It seems the answer to the doulbe teaming of Happ is to put him outside and clear out a bit, then have Happ dribble in and post on the dribble.   He can see the double team coming a bit earlier...he got good looks with this strategy, too.    Hayes was posting up more today.  Although he hit a few shorter jumpers, it seems Hayes isn't so confident in his 3-ball.  Good to see BK playing and hitting that 3 was exactly what Bucky needed at that point of comeback.

Tied for the B1G with 4 games to go.  At O$U and MSU the next two games will probably make or break our chances for winning the title.  Iowa and Minny to end the season at home should be wins. 

Purdon't has 3 of 4 on the road.  @PSU,  @Michigan; Indiana (home); and then ends the season at Northwestern.  The way they are playing now with their bigs, I don't see them losing anymore.

Should be a fun 2 weeks.

4 tough games coming up....don't discount the Hawks or the Goofs. 

At Michigan State is always tough and O$U can be pesky on the road.  Honestly, if UW doesn't come to play they could lose any or all of their remaining four.   Although, given their history I'm more inclined to think they win out. Today was a statement win and sent a message to the conference that UW aint dead and buried just yet.  If Koenig can get healthy and Hayes plays close to what he did today this team is a load.  

All the games will be tough, especially if they play like they did against Michigan.

Terps are going to be a thorn for awhile though, those are talented freshmen

I hope the Terps are constantly good at something at least, it's good to see at least one of the "East Coast" teams contribute to the B1G. 

Even the win vs. Maryland couldn't keep them from dropping in the polls. Now 16th in AP and 15th in the Coaches.  

Sounds about right.

But first in our hearts.

And on their way to Milwaukee as a 5 seed. 

Beware #12 then.
