A little note about Grambling's crazy travel to get here.
They left campus at 7 am yesterday morning and didn't arrive in Madison until 11:15 p.m. last night. Yikes.

They had a two-hour delay in Shreveport for mechanical problems with their plan. That caused them to miss their connecting flight in Dallas. The team had to take separate flights to Chicago... then bus to Madison. We'll see what kind of energy they have today.

Yeah... GSU is a little under-sized... we'll see.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:01 
12:01
Keaton wins the tip and Bucky will set up the offense with Hughes.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:01 
12:02
GSU is in man-to-man defense to start... Hughes gets called for an offensive foul on a clear-out on the first possession.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:02 
12:02
Bucky had only 5 turnovers vs. Duke, but opens today with one.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:02 
12:02
Akepele misses a baby hook in low and UW clears.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:02 
12:03
At the other end, Leuer catches quickly and scores... and one! Foul on Fuertado.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:03 
12:03
Leuer makes good on the 3-point play and UW leads 3-0 early.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:03 
12:04
Fuertado catches his own miss (off the side of the backboard) and puts in the put-back. Nice physical play vs. Leuer.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:04 
12:04
Now Leuer picks up an offensive foul... that's two turnovers in three trips. A little sloppy opening.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:04 
12:05
Hughes nearly, gets the steal, but UW can't come up with it.
Taylor enters the game with the ball heading OB. He replaces Leuer and the Badgers go small.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:05 
12:05
Grambling leads 4-3 after an inside lay-in by Akepele.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:05 
12:06
A little nervous encouragement from the crowd. Again the intensity just doesn't compare to Wednesday night. Hard to get hyped.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:06 
12:07
Evans replaces Jarmusz and J-Bo drains a triple from the wing. J-Bo was 0-6 from deep vs. Duke, nice to get him goin.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:07 
12:07
GSU misses and Taylor rims in a jumper. 8-4 now.
GSU answers with an Akepele bucket.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:07

We should be able to get to the line today.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:07 Jeff
12:08
Hughes misses a drive and Evans gets blocked on the put-back. GSU brings it down the floor down just two.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:08 
12:08
Hughes with a block and UW runs.
Evans looks down low to Hughes... he gets fouled and will shoot two after the timeout.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:08 
12:09
Media timeout
Wisconsin 8

Saturday December 5, 2009 12:09

Early stat check...

UW shooting 50% (3-6)
GSU shooting 37.5% (3-8)
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:10 
12:11
I was wrong on the earlier statement that UW has two turnovers, the Leuer foul was an over the back... not offensive.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:11 
12:11
The Kohl Center is starting to fill-in a little now. The student section still look like the first quarter of a football game though.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:11 
12:12
Pop swishes both FTs. He's 21-of-28 at the line this year.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:12 
12:12
GSU turns it over and Taylor throws an alley-oop to Evans... SLAM! Love the athleticism that Evans brings. That was fun.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:12 
12:12
GSU misses and J-Bo makes it hurt with another 3 from the same spot on the floor. He has a quick 6 points.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:12 
12:12
[Comment From LanceSLanceS: ]

GSU gets whistled for traveling as Wilson replaces Hughes. Rob didn't get in vs. Duke, but sees early action today.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:13 
12:13
Let's see how aggressive he plays.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:13 
12:13
Berggren also enters the game and he gets a quick hoop on a pass from Taylor. Should be lots of playing time for the youngsters today.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:13 
12:14
Berggren catches in the low block from J-Bo... turns and double-clutches on the shot. He misses, but is fouled.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:14 
12:14
[Comment From dandan: ] 
why has wilson seen limited playing time the last few games?
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:14 dan
12:14
That's a good question.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:14 
12:15
I would say a big reason is that Bo Ryan doesn't like to play 10 guys in a game very often. He usually uses 8 or 9-man rotation. With Evans and even Bruesewitz playing well, Rob has been odd man out a little.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:15 
12:15
Berg hits one of two FTs.
GSU misses and Taylor drives the lane and scores off the window.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:15 
12:16
Taylor can penetrate a little more than people think... he's a great compliment to Hughes.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:16 
12:16
Grambling's Qualls knocks down a three to cut the lead to 20-9.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:16 
12:16
Bruiser works in the post for Bucky, can't get the turn-around to fall and then fouls on the rebound. Freshman play perhaps?
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:16 
12:17
UW brings the two bigs back in the game (Jon and Keaton).
Grambling's Qualls hits another 3... this time a DEEP 3 with 2 seconds on the shot clock. A little 6-0 run for the Tigers.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:17

Stat check...

Ryan Evans has a quick 5 rebounds already and J-Bo leads the Badgers with 6 points. UW is now shooting 63.6%
Qualls has 6 points for GSU, who is shooting 38.5%.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:20

[Comment From BKBK: ] 
Duke was a big team. Wilson matches up well with small wings, but Singler would've given him problem. WIlson will get his chances this season . . . Marquette comes to mind.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:20 BK
12:20
I definitely agree... Bo Ryan is a master at using his players to match-up with other teams. We'll see more of Wilson in games this year.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:20 
12:21
Taylor misses a jumper.
One lonely fan has the Oooooooooooo chant going during GSU's possession.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:21 
12:22
GSU misses and Tim Jarmusz knocks down a jumper for Bucky. His first points.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:22 
12:22
Qualls tries another DEEEEP three at the end of the shot clock, this time its way off.
Wilson can't get the bucket in low at the other end.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:22 
12:23
Leuer steals it back... leaves for Taylor who pushes in transition to Wilson for a lay-up. UW beat GSU down the court that time.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:23 
12:23
Taylor has four assists already today. He's second in the Big Ten coming into today in assist-to-turnover ratio. He's helping his case today, that's for sure.

something that I think will be fun to note and watch in the marquette game will be the madison memorial match up in nankivil vs. Maymon.

12:24
Torez Young hits a baseline jumper after a GSU miss. The Tigers are getting a few offensive boards today... something UW will want to lock up.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:24 
12:25
Jarmusz gets fouled and UW will in-bound.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:25 
12:25
Hughes back in now after a long rest.
Evans attacks the glass and scores on a nice scoop... plus the foul! Three-point try coming after the media timeout.

Evans fouls a GSU player and they convert one of two FTs, but Hughes answers with a triple from the corner!
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:30 
12:30
Lloyd misses a jumper and Taylor rebounds. UW will set up.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:30 
12:30
Hughes misses a triple from the corner and GSU comes back.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:30 
12:31
A loose ball and J-Bo hits the deck and tries to wrestle it away. It is a jumpball and GSU keeps it.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:31 
12:32
Fuertado with a nice take and lefty scoop under Leuer... 30-18 now UW leads.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:32 
12:32
J-Bo jumps it down to Taylor in the post and he can't get the turn-around to fall but he's fouled. Hmmm... Taylor working in the post. Now that's the swing offense.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:32 
12:32
We don't see a lot of Hughes down there, but Taylor is strong and he could make a good living down there if he perfects his craft.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:32 
12:33
Taylor hits one of two FTs... that's another part of his game that he's working on.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:33 
12:33
GSU misses and UW attacks.
J-Bo leaves his feet but finds Hughes for two off the glass.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:33 
12:34
A GSU drive and Keaton is late rotating over and gets called for the block call. Qualls will shoot two. At 5-foot-7, he looks small in amongst the bigs.
He hits both FTs and GSU sets up a press.
Saturday December 5, 2009 12:34 
12:35
They get UW out of sync and J-Bo turns it over.
GSU can't capitalize though as Taylor rebounds a miss.

Leuer is fouled and will shoot bonus FT... he misses but Jarmusz fights for a tough rebound. It circles back to Leuer, who drives and misses, but gets fouled again.

Leuer drives and gets smacked on the arm as he goes up to shoot. That will bring him to the line again. He hits both FTs and is 18-for-26 at the line this year.

Keaton didn't have very many stats? He isn't hurt is he?

No Keaton's fine... he's just playing a role today. He does have four assists.

I just tuned in. Obviously, the score looks good, but how has UW looked? Any hangover from the big win earlier in the week?

Wisconsin is methodically putting Grambling away here. Kind of a quiet crowd and not nearly the intensity of Wednesday.

Ugly fall by Evan Turner - went to the hospital for xrays - hope he's OK, he's a great player.

Uh oh... what happened to Turner?

Nankivil with a block, but GSU retains possession... they miss moments later and Keaton clears.
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:17 
1:18
Hughes misses, but GSU turns it over on a J-Bo steal. From his rear... he throws ahead to Hughes, who bounces to Nankivil for a big dunk... and foul! Great play.

Keaton misses the FT and GSU rebounds.

He went up for a dunk, appeared to lose his balance, and fell hard on his back. They showed the clip on the BTN. He was able to walk off, but they took him to the hospital.

Taylor dribbles to the elbow... takes a bump and knocks down a jumper. Badgers lead 57-36.

Berggren, Evans, Taylor, J-Bo and Hughes on the floor for UW.
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:21 
1:21
Hughes drives, spins and hangs... shot is no good but he's fouled by Perkins. He'll shoot two FTs.

[Comment From NorCalRellesNorCalRelles: ] 
I've only seen the Duke game, but follow the team closely from the west coast. I get the idea that the underclassman are pushing the upperclassman to play with more grit and fire. Specifically, Evans, Taylor and Bruiser are inspiring Nank and Leuer. What do those at the games think?

Good to see Taylor play with such confidence this season! We will miss Pop next year but Taylor is going to be good
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:22 Jason

Pop makes both and now has 14 points today. His average is 16.2.

Really like the combo of Taylor and Hughes out there at the same time. Match up nightmare.
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:23 Ryan

Taylor passes to Hughes, who drives and gets fouled again. He hits one of two at the line and UW is up by 24 now.
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:23

Qualls is long on a three and Hughes rebounds.

Ryan - I totally agree. Taylor handling the point & letting Hughes play the 2 is a great look.

Hughes finds Berggren down low for a tough two off the glass. Nice balance taking the contact and finishing.

[Comment From NorCalRellesNorCalRelles: ] 
I would add that anyone complaining about recruiting is not watching how the underclassman play. Taylor is not being asked to do what Trevon did as a soph, but he is ready. Wilson is going to be good too, on par with JBo next year. They are both playing the roles that Hughes and JBo played as freshmen - the 3rd and 4th guards in the rotation.

Wisconsin is really making its mark in the paint today (as they should), doubling up GSU 28-14.
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:27

Badgers are still shooting 64.7%... that will win you a lot of games.

You for got Ryan Evans who is going to be a shut down defender
Saturday December 5, 2009 1:28 Jason

Taylor makes another bucket... this time down low. GSU misses, but retains possesion. GSU has nine offensive boards today... that's too high.

Akpele gets fouled and will shoot two.
He hits one of two.
Taylor into double digits with 11 by the way.

UW leads 64-37 with under 10:00 left.
Hughes scores on a seal down low. Evans with a nice feed. He's fouled and hits the FT also. An old-fashioned 3-point play.

[Comment From RyanRyan: ] 
For those of you concerned about the recruiting, I wouldn't really worry about it. You can never really tell how players are going to be. But what you can bet on is players will get better under Bo Ryan. Us Badger fans are going to love Josh Gasser, you can bank on that.

I think Dukan is going to be really good. Just watching him, he can really handle the ball well for someone 6'8", and can really, really shoot it

I haven't seen those guys, Dan. This year's freshmen class looks like they will replace the Leuer/Nank/TJ class just fine. Last year's freshman look like they can handle the Hughes/JBo duties. And the beat goes on for Bo's boys.
