Down go Da Badgers !!!

The Hilltoppers of Western Kentucky did not extend much southern hospitality today.

 

[BillyC80]

Not surprised. Thought they looked very beatable when we played them.

WKU has an awesome campus and a legit arena. Real athletic director. Wisconsin was #12 and we were crushing them on their home court. Shoulda been us taking them down

 

[Mr_Twister]

WKU has a prime time coach. Rick Stansbury. Winning is nothing new with him. He finds a way.

So a top-20 Big 10 team loses to a 6-6 low major team on the road. As I’ve said before, that’s why there’s no upside to playing teams like Fordham on the road!

It's a bad loss for the conference....but Illinois losing to Florida Atlantic even worse. Big 10 had a hot start to non conference but cooled off somewhat the past month

Maryland and Iowa also had struggles with lesser opponents. Notre Dame also struggles to beat Coppin.

The RPI formula treats road wins very generously.

Bryant also gave Iowa all they could handle, I watched that one. Iowa basically looked like St Johns running a perimeter offense just without the athletes to respect their driving ability

fortunately RPI is dead and no longer used

And Wisconsin was ranked 15 coming in. Does this mean Wisconsin is poorly coached? Of course not. There is more and more parity in today's college game and even a .500 team like Western Kentucky can pull off an upset. Now, if only we can during B1G play, that will be great.

Western Kentucky has a lot of talent. And a good coach in Stansbury. I haven't followed them closely, but I know they landed a 5-star big man we were trying to recruit.

Totally agree Dave. But by winning I think they're now .500. I wish we landed that big man. And you're right, WK has had a history of producing quality teams over the years.

Think they also have a legit stud Think his name is massey or bassey.

Announcers said he goes into this years NBA draft.

That's the kid we were recruiting.

Road OOC game on Christmas week. Very odd. Princeton beat Arizona State yesterday as well

 

[Mr_Twister]

Great win for Princeton. Sagarin has Arizona State rated higher than our local archnemeses, St. Jacks and Seton Hall.
