The Wisconsin basketball team heads into the Big Ten Tournament as hot as any team in the conference, but will need to rely on more than just momentum to ensure a deep tournament run.
Following day one action of the tournament, the Badgers opening-round opponent is set and Wisconsin is set to take on the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
While the Cornhuskers are fresh off of a win over the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, the Badgers have been idle since their final game of the regular season on Sunday when they fell by 11 points in a 91-80 road loss at Purdue.
