Men’s basketball: Wisconsin’s shooting woes met with poor timing as matchup against No. 14 Syracuse looms

Given the Wisconsin men’s basketball team’s recent offensive struggles, Wednesday’s matchup against Syracuse couldn’t come at a worse time.

No. 14 Syracuse (6-0) is fresh off winning the Battle for Atlantis tournament, which the Badgers (4-3) won last season. UW will be just three days removed from a miserable offensive performance against No. 7 Oklahoma on Sunday, a 65-48 beating on the road. The last time UW scored that few points was in 2013 against Virginia, a game that they won.

Tip off at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York is set for 6:15 p.m. CT on ESPN.
