My first time watching Wisconsin this year and all I heard about was how they actually learned to score some points. First 4 minutes and I'm already half asleep. I really feel bad for their fans.
Iowa however looks pretty solid. I watched them choke against Iowa State a few weeks back. Isu is 2-0 vs big ten. They look really good this year!
 
I didn't watch the game but just saw the highlights, McCaffrey seems like an asshole. it looks like he had a right to be pissed about the no call and then touch foul but you just killed your team with back to back T's and giving Wisconsin 6 FT's. you go from up 2 to down 3 because of your temper, you just can't act like that. He took a piece out of the breslin floor slamming it to the ground a few years ago too. He crosses the line too much and hurts his team. You can work the refs but don't go ape shit when you don't get all of the calls on the road.
 
It was badly officiated but that still doesn't give him the right to get ejected and put his team in a hole. Once they went down a couple of points due to the free throws they (Iowa) never recovered.
But they still look like a really good team to me. They'll end up in the 4-6 spot in the big dance.

I'm not convinced that this Wisconsin team is that much better than the ones we swept over the last two years. they havent played anyone that good away from home
 
I just looked at their schedule, no MSU or OSU on the road? who does ryan give a hand job to every year?

of course we don't have to go to MN or Nebraska, so that's fair. i'd say they're 1.5 games up on us now

They rely so much on their three point shooting, they'll drop at least 5 games in big ten play. You can't win consistently when you're just throwing up the ball from 3.
Call me a homer but MSU is the best team in the big ten. Ohio state struggles so score the ball although they play really good defense. The game Tuesday night will be pretty darn good.
 
I don't know how many Wisconsin will drop in league play but they are not as good as their ranking. Top 10-12 perhaps, but not top 5. They have some ok wins but the big one on their resume so far is a close home win vs Florida when Scotty Wilbekin was still suspended.

I'm a little skeptical of OSU too, but we'll see tomorrow.
 
We are the best team but that schedule is a huge equalizer. Were the best by far with dawson playing like a beast. Also, izzo was quoted after indiana as saying harris isn't ever scratching his potential because he doesn't have his stamina back.
