Today, April 4, 2025, marks the 10th anniversary of Wisconsin basketball's greatest moment.
The final score of Badgers 71, Kentucky 64 should jog the memory. If not, it is also commonly known as the '38-1 game.' Wisconsin defeated then-undefeated Kentucky in the 2015 Final Four, ending what had the chance to be the greatest season in the sport's history.
Every layer of context adds to the gravity of the result. Wisconsin had lost to Kentucky 74-73 in the Final Four the year prior, as guard Traevon Jackson's buzzer-beater attempt clanged off the rim. The Badgers returned nearly their entire team entering 2014-15, including stars Frank Kaminsky and Sam Dekker, plus leading role players Bronson Koenig, Nigel Hayes and Josh Gasser.
