The Rutgers men’s basketball team will play its third game in six days, as well as the second one on the road tonight at Wisconsin. The Badgers are ranked in the top 20 nationally and are led by preseason All-American center Ethan Happ. Wisconsin is one of the toughest road environments to play in, not just the Big Ten but across the college basketball landscape. This game will certainly be a major challenge for the Scarlet Knights.
I was fortunate to speak with Jake Kocorowski of SB Nation’s Wisconsin blog, Bucky’s 5th Quarter about the current state of Wisconsin basketball ahead of this matchup.
