I stand by these words.

Perhaps deceiving.....it is difficult for any team in this league to win 8 in a row.

With that said, Wisconsin is really REALLY good.

If that game wasn't played in Lincoln tonight we wouldn't have won it. Wisconsin is a Final 4 type of team this year.

Perhaps. However, Nebraska won by 9 and were going away with 5 minutes remaining.

Wisconsin is not a Final 4 team. They aren't even the best team in the Big 10. They even know it themselves hence them making an ass ton of excuses before this game about it meaning nothing, even though a potential #1 seed was on the line.

Nebraska has the #2 defense in the league and that's what they put on Wisconsin in the 2nd half.

This year has been crazy in the B1G, a ton of upsets. There are 6 legit teams that could win this B1G Tourney.

I think you're underestimating that Wisconsin team a little bit.

I watched them all year long. They are DAMN good.

They have 7 wins over top 50 teams this year. They also beat Michigan on the road, they beat Virginia (#5 team in the nation) on the road, and they beat Florida (#1 team in the nation).

Please

They beat Michigan St by 2 points in Madison and Mich St's been in a slump winning only 5 of their last 12.
They beat Michigan during Michigan's slump losing 3 of 5.
They beat Iowa who's lost 5 of their last 6.

Now they lost to Nebraska by 9.

Wisconsin has been the benefactor of everyone else's fail.

I had a pretty good feeling Nebraska had a good chance to win this game based solely on Wisconsin's 8 win streak resume. When you peel back the layers it's not all that impressive.

6 points over Purdue at home
5 points over Penn St

Well, Florida looks like a pretty good team, and Wisconsin handled them. They're actually the #1 ranked team in the country right now.

Virginia looks pretty decent too.....Wisconsin beat them on the road. They're actually the #5 ranked team.

Wisconsin is 5-1 against top 25 teams this year.......that is the 2nd best percentage in the nation right behind Arizona who is 4-0.

There is no reason to believe Wisconsin is not legit. I don't buy that stuff you're spewing, sir.....it sounds like you just don't like Wisky or sumptin.

They beat Florida by 6 in Madison on November 12th. UAB beat Nebraska on Nov 22nd. BFD

They beat Virginia on Dec 4th. Green Bay Phoenix beat Virginia on Dec 7th.

Keep them coming and I'll keep peeling back the lipstick.

While Wisconsin is a very good team

They didn't beat this #1 Florida team.

That was a home win vs a very depleted gator squad and it was a close game.

LOL at using Nov/Dec games to say a team is great in March.

Losing 6 out of 7 from Jan 14 - Feb 1st is more realistic.

The fact is Wisconsin's 8 game streak was a bit deceiving.
