Is there something about Wisconsin

It's really not just your typical b*tchfest. There is a serious problem with the way Wisconsin interprets & plays the game.
Pissconsin won because of luck. Iowa likely would have won with their whole team intact. Pissconsin probably doesn't know that Iowa had their starting point guard Ulis and best player Kris Murray out with injuries.

Fran is 6-4 v Gard, I believe. It will get better.
Clearly none of you have ever watched a Wisconsin basketball practice. They start every practice by doing drills on how to most effectively swing your elbows. Whenever they scrimmage they don’t keep track of the score, rather the winning team is the one that can commit the most fouls without drawing a call
It’s amazing they ever win a game with the amount of time they spend practicing cheap shots

They got an overtime win against us with us having 2 starters out and that’s reason enough for them to come to our board to lord it over us?
In any two point game you can find missed calls and Larry’s crew has a history of making some awful ones. He and Fran have a history and as long as he has a whistle Iowa won’t be getting any favors.
Most teams would kiss their lucky stars and expect to catch **** in practice, but some WI fans see it as a cause to celebrate. Consider the source and opt to ignore.

True but the Wisconsin style has rankled plenty of otherwise emotionally stable coaches since Bennett introduced it all those years ago.
It really frustrates anyone -- coaches, commentators, and fans alike -- who cling to the (misguided, imo) view that the team with the most talented players should win.
I can respect it because it wins but I'll never enjoy watching it and neither will the majority of CBB fans.
Swinging the elbows establishes the cylinder the opposing players are not supposed to be in.
According to bucky fans.
Surely you can agree considering Luka Garza got his number retired from doing that
Of course a wisky fan laughs about a serious undercut that can really hurt someone. I swear wisky fans like the dirty play. They seem to relish in it. I remember seeing Brad scumbag Davidson nutpunch a michigan state player twice in 1 game. Classic wisky
That’s implemented day one of preseason practice. If you can’t nut punch you can’t play for UW.
Defense isn’t for everyone. But it wins. It’s a team game. The team is greater than the sum of its individual pieces.
Dirty play is what bothers me about wiscy. Years ago i actually respected them for their defense but Brad changed the culture and i still see his influence. It's been to many years of just the dirty stuff that bugs me. I respect the football team although thought Leonard deserved a shot at head coach.
True statement, but some of the stuff that seems to happen pretty regularly in Wisky games wouldn't even be tolerated in pick up games, at least not without some yelling and shoving. It isn't just one player or one season, which does lead me to believe that it is encouraged by the coaches.
