Purdue's got some moderately difficult games and Alabama plays Oregon on Saturday are probably the 2 other teams ranked ahead of them that are most likely to take a loss that would allow Wisconsin to be ahead of them. As of now I think they'll definitely be ranked ahead of Indiana and North Carolina, almost definitely ahead of UCONN who will probably take quite a tumble. That's probably where I think it ends, I don't think they'll be ahead of Duke, I don't think they'll be ahead of Gonzaga unless the Zags take another loss, I don't think they'll ahead of Iowa State and a small chance they're ahead of Houston. So my guess is, assuming things stay relatively static that they'll be 12.

This is all assuming they don't have one of the worst losses in program history on Saturday, and no that's not hyperbole Chicago State is that bad.



Marquette is a pretty good high school team. The Dental school isnt bad.

I have officially attended the coldest badger football game of my lifetime.

I also completed the day night double header by attending the men's hockey game this evening.

Cardinal Friday for this guy.

For those interested Peacock has a Black Friday deal through the weekend for $19.99/year. Make sure you go through the website and not the iTunes Store though as the deal is not available through iTunes.

Much closer 1st half than expected but I wouldn't be surprised if the Badgers can come out with a nice run.

Xavmos hits a couple three-pees, Red Sauce Rico gets in the box score and the Nepo Baby dribbles the clock out. No complaints from local shtposter. Would be nice for Klesmax to find the stroke but there must be something in the queue that must be disposed at the feet of Greg Gard.

Klesmit was awful yesterday. The shooting is what it is, I think eventually that'll even itself out, but he was pretty bad defensively and his 2 turnovers were just absolute bone headed turnovers.

Amos playing better was a really good sign though. Because Winter and Crowl were pretty close to unplayable against UTRGV in the 2nd half they played a lot of minutes with a lineup of McGee, Blackwell, Klesmit, Tonje and Gilmore. If Amos continues to play well he takes Gilmore's spot in that lineup.

My ongoing rant about Peacock. When I tuned in to the Badger game after the Bucks game there is no option to start from the beginning. Amazon has this. Peacock needs this as they expand their live sports.

I've seen you mention this before and I've never not been able to start from the beginning. If I'm watching on the computer or mobile I drag the scrubber to the left. If I'm on my TV I hit rewind on my remote.

I just started the game over from the tip. Took two seconds.

You're right. I'm watching on my TV via Roku. I can hit rewind on the remote. The problem is the game comes up live first. I guess I can not look at the screen as I hit rewind. But it works. Cool.

You're right about getting an option to go live or from the beginning if you don't want it spoiled. Would be useful.

This has been an option since TiVo in 2003. No excuse for peacock.

Winter and Crowl are the two softest 7 footers I’ve ever seen

Max being completely broken is going to catch up with us at some point - maybe tonight. He's been abysmal.
