A rejuevenated Ethan Happ set the tone for second half with some high energy low post play. Also factor on glass(9 reb) a big key in the win

Officials let both teams play. Typical of physical matchups with MichSt & Purdue. Battled-tested Badgers showed resolve when most needed

Doubtful that this team would have overcome poor shooting games by Hayes & Koenig if it wasn't for revived defense that contested all shots

Noone was apologizing for lack of artistic expression after watching higher seeds crash & burn 1st 2 days. Expect much better showing Sunday
