I'm going to have to apologize to Brad Davison. It seems flopping is engrained into Wisconsin's culture. It wasn't his fault he was raised that way.

I think I disagree. I get that the committee taking conference tournaments seriously varies from year to year (and we've been hosed by it, especially 2 years ago), but you literally have 3 teams who have similar resumes and all struggled to finish the regular season. One team has outright dominated their conference tournament so far, including dismantling a Sweet 16-seeded team; the other team is one-and-out. I think at that point you have to go with the team that had the monster tourney showing.
Incredibly bad end of half shot by Wisconsin.
Just incredibly dumb.
Just incredibly dumb.
What a dumb shot for WI there. You couldn't do anything better than that?

lmao. Dribble it out and hoist a 3 from 6ft beyond the arc.
A full shot clock and he shot feet behind an NBA 3.
Yeah, that choice is ... puzzling.
Maybe if clock was under 10 when it started, but it was like at 19 seconds?? Run something. Motion, something.
If Illinois loses, I think we have it. Its very close though. A few of the metrics have shifted the last few days to the point where we have a statistically better resume right now.
You see it all the time. It seems like coaches are so terrified of running a real play that gets the ball inside, and scoring with a few seconds left and giving the opponent a chance to come back, that they would rather just chuck a 30 footer as the clock expires
Really hoping that regardless of result Wisconsin is off out seed line as a potential second round matchup. I want no part of that matchup. They can shoot 3s well and are money at the FT line.
At least they got the offensive rebound on the ill-advised 3
