What Momentum Do the Badgers Carry Into the Opener?
Wisconsin enters the regular season looking to build directly upon the final performance of its exhibition schedule. The Badgers closed out their tune-up slate with an 82-65 victory over Oklahoma State.
In that win, the offense clicked from deep in a major way. The team knocked down 18 three-pointers, with eight different players connecting from beyond the arc. Head into Monday night, the primary objective for the squad is maintaining that exact offensive rhythm.
