when we played I was disappointed we couldn’t win, now I see how good they are. They look like they can legit compete with MSU and if healthy they have the skill, talent and coaching to make noise in the tourney. They remind me of a lot of past Wisc teams.

They are a great team in Iowa City. That game in Evanston was there for the taking, were it not for some cold shooting and poor officiating.

We lost by ten pts at home and they were without arguably their best player. Everyone could win a lot of games with better shooting.

Or maybe not. Didn’t see the second half but looks like MSU crushed it.

MSU is the OSU of basketball for the big ten. Head and shoulders over a solid conference but a step below the true elites like Duke.
Yep.

Izzo has built his program on kids who stay for 4 years. This years team is much better than last, yet he had two guys go to the NBA from that 2018 team. The difference is Winston and Ward, experienced guys who know how to win.

But not when we played 5 on 8 in the second half after the refs decided to get some revenge for us not ejecting a fan....
