Key stats tell why Wisconsin is an actual national title contender in 2025

The NCAA Tournament is finally upon us, as the Wisconsin Badgers drew a No. 3 seed in the East Region, taking on the No. 14 Montana Grizzlies on Thursday, with tip-off scheduled for 12:30 p.m. central on TNT.

Wisconsin is coming into the tournament off a strong week in the Big Ten Tournament, having gotten victories over the Northwestern Wildcats, UCLA Bruins, and Michigan State Spartans en route to the Championship game.

However, the Badgers fell flat against the Michigan Wolverines, having their worst offensive performance of the last 15 years from a field goal percentage perspective, losing in the Championship game for the second straight year.
