"You do not know when there will be any type of breakthrough when you're going through a stretch like this," Holtmann said after the game. If we didn't have a breakthrough today, but we played the right way for longer stretches, then that was going to be the conversation in the postgame."



No Illinois game thread?

The Bucks last won consecutive games on 12/29/22 and 1/1/23. They'll try to do it today on Senior night.

Great to see the young Bucks getting some momentum. Seems like they've realized they don't shoot well and have attacked better....20 for 20 from the line, that's a helluva stat! Seeing Okpara show flashes is huge....all about next season, keeping those freshman happy and getting them experience. Short 8 man rotation now and would love to see Gayle and Okpara getting long and extended looks.

On the bright side we don't have to spent any time figuring out what seed we are in the Big Ten tournament unlike the 7 teams tied for 2nd place heading into today.

Based on results earlier today we now know the Bucks will take on Wisconsin in the tournament.

What's crazy is Northwestern. They'll either be the two seed (beat Rutgers) or the ninth seed (lose).

End Wisconsin's season !!!!!!!!!!!!!

LETS GO NEW LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Win 5 straight and we are dancing!!!!!!!!!!!

NEVER SAY DIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have got to be the best #13 seed in Big Ten tournament history as far as talent goes.

I know this is a big fat ridiculous chance but I couldn't leave it alone.


It'd take a miracle but it's a half cup of coffee at stake.

According to Kenpom, the Buckeyes are 363rd in Luck rating, dead last in the NCAA.

The luck rating is the deviation between a team's actual winning percentage and the expected % from the other KP metrics.

Haha if the Bucks finish this game, I'm going to get a Deal or No Deal situation on that bet. The Cash Out will probably be $10.

If it is, jokes on them as I Cash Out, bank $5 and play on their $5 and bet it again! Lower odds of course but a touch larger bet and it's not my money so I'm down.

I don't know how much further the Bucks can go but these tournament games are great experience for the freshmen who stick around.
