hhcmatt Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Nebraska Cornhuskers (13-10) vs #7 Wisconsin Badgers (21-2) Date: Thursday, Feb 10th, 2015Time: 8:00 p.m. CSTArena: Pinnacle Bank ArenaCapacity: 15,000Broadcast Information Television: ESPN Online: WatchESPN Announcers: Mike Tirico and Dan Dakich w/ Sam Ponder Satellite Radio: Sirius (Ch. 84); XM (84)Play-by-play: Kent PavelkaExpert Analysis: Matt DavisonWisconsin Scouting Thread Wisconsin InfoHead Coach: Bo RyanLocation: Madison, WIConference: B1G 10Nickname: BadgersLast time out: Beat NorthwesternTypical Rotation Depth: 7-8 playersOpening Line: Wisconsin by 10Fun Fact : Corn is a grainFun Fact : Every starter for the Badgers have attempted over 30 3pters this year.Player to watch: Frank KaminskyThe 7'0" Senior is a post player possessing guard skills and can shoot from anywhere on the court. The pre-season All-American anchors the Badger offense and defense, leading the team in rebounds and points. Kaminsky came back from a head injury to knock down 4-5 3pters on his way to 22 points in the last game against the HuskersThe SkinnyWe like home games and have had fairly good success against Wisconsin at home during our brief B1G career. Before last year's huge win we lost two close games by 5 and 6 points against superior Badger squads. Tonight's Wisconsin team might be Bo Ryan's most potent offensive squad and will undoubtedly test what has been one of the great Husker defensive teams of this century. The Huskers won last year by shooting over 50% from both 2 and 3 while shooting 25 FTs. They only turned the ball over 5 times. Does this team have that in them? Does this crowd? Will that be enough against a potential Final 4 team?Prediction: Wisconsin 66 - Nebraska 59 with a 35% chance of RunzasClick here to view the article Red Don 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
