The Wisconsin Badgers dropped an ugly game to the Providence Friars, losing 72-59 in a loss that wasn’t nearly as close as the score indicated.
Wisconsin had no answers throughout the night, trailing by 16 at halftime, and as many as 25 in the second half.
Following the game, head coach Greg Gard was irritated at the performance, who cited the team’s lack of effort in the loss.
“Credit to Providence. They kicked our ass, so we’ll see how we respond to it. But they played hard. We didn’t play hard enough all the time in the show, playing hard covers up wards and I thought they did a good job,” Gard said.
