After a six-week hiatus, Greg Gad and the Wisconsin Badgers basketball program have made a warranted return to the Associated Press Top 25 rankings, securing the No. 23 spot just ahead of the NCAA Tournament.
This resurgence marks a significant turnaround for the Badgers, who faced a concerning stretch in February. They endured a four-game losing streak, went 2-6 overall, and never won back-to-back games, leading to their exclusion from the AP Top 25 together after reaching No. 6.
Despite their mid-season struggles, the Badgers regained their footing in March, capitalizing on newfound momentum to deliver an impressive performance in the Big Ten Tournament.
