Wisconsin locks in defensively to dominate No. 18 Michigan

By Jacob Hams | Nov. 18, 2016

The No. 3 Wisconsin Badgers (13-2 Big Ten, 23-3 overall) made a statement with their dominating performance against No. 18 Michigan (10-7, 21-8), after almost losing to them earlier in the season. The first set didn’t start how the Badgers would have liked, with them giving up three early points, but they quickly bounced back and had a four-point run of their own.

Blough will need to have perfect game for Purdue

By Cameron Lane-Flehinger | Nov. 18, 2016

Purdue Which Blough show? In his first full season as the starter, sophomore quarterback David Blough has been unpredictable, showing flashes of exceptional play that would put him among the best in the conference, mixed with games in which one bad decision seems to lead to more and more.

Wisconsin's unique cast has diverse set of names

By Lorin Cox | Nov. 18, 2016

What’s in a name? For the No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers, a lot. From Aaron to Zander and everything in between, this team keeps stenographers busy and announcers tongue-twisted with a colorful roster that uses the whole alphabet. The Badgers have names starting with 22 of the 26 letters on their 114-man roster.

Predictions: Cardinal writers make bold picks for Week 12

Nov. 18, 2016

Wisconsin score prediction: Lorin Cox:  Wisconsin 48, Purdue 6 The Badgers’ late-season cakewalk continues through West Lafayette, and we should see plenty of backups in the game by the fourth quarter as Wisconsin has the game in the bag by the end of the first quarter. Ben Pickman: Wisconsin 45, Purdue 10 UW’s vaunted stretch of October games is a mere memory as the Badgers look forward to yet another matchup against a Big Ten bottom-feeder.

Nigel Hayes and the rest of the Badgers will look to improve from three-point range tonight.

After disappointing loss, Badgers return home against lowly Chicago State

By Ben Pickman | Nov. 17, 2016

Thirty-nine three-pointers, 16 turnovers and five free throws. Those are just a few of the numbers that jump out from No. 9 Wisconsin’s (1-1) 79-67 loss to No. 22 Creighton (2-0) earlier this week. UW’s box score from Tuesday night looks less like that of a classic Badger team and more like that of a pickup game at a local gym. The Badgers learned Tuesday night that they have a lot of room to grow.

Badgers remain winless after third quarter collapse

By Cal Larsen | Nov. 17, 2016

What began as a promising night for Wisconsin women’s basketball ended up being a crushing loss in front of its home crowd. Wisconsin (0-3) welcomed the Dayton Flyers (1-2) to the Kohl Center in what truly was a tale of two halves and would eventually result in Dayton snagging its first victory of the season.

No. 1 Badgers face first tough test of the season against No. 3 Minnesota-Duluth

By Cameron Lane-Flehinger | Nov. 17, 2016

Through 12 games and almost two months, No. 1 Wisconsin (9-0-1 WCHA, 11-0-1 overall) has proven itself as the clear best team in women’s collegiate hockey this season, holding the top spot in every USCHO.com poll and collecting every first place vote in all but three of them. The only piece missing from the Badgers’ résumé is a win against another top team, the squads that Wisconsin will have to beat to make a deep run in the NCAA tournament.
