Just as I wouldn't bet on Bo Ryan and the Badgers in the NCAA tournament against a higher seeded team until he proves he can beat one, I won't bet on Buzz Williams and the Golden Eagles until the first year Marquette coach proves he can win a marquee game. The following predictions are more detailed predictions about the game:
-UW will win 67-58.
-MU's loss will be attributable to Lazar Hayward picking up early fouls, exposing MU's lack of interior depth with Fulce and Otule sidelined by injuries.
-Keaton Nankivil will be the biggest positive surprise for the Badgers.
-MU's Wes Matthews will score 20 points against his hometown team.
-UW's Marcus Landry will score 18 points and grab 8 boards in his hometown against his hometown team, which will earn him Player of the Game honors.
-MU won't value possessions enough and won't dig in deep enough defensively against the probability-oriented Badgers.
-The game will have the least fans at the Bradley Center for an MU-UW game since the first MU-UW game of the Tom Crean era.
-"The Ron Burgandy of Milwaukee" will jump around to the delight of Golden Eagles fans while Badger fans will question if MU has the right to play their song... somewhere, Kris Kross won't know that "Jump Around" ever transferred ownership.
-Badger fans will chant something about educational quality, bosses, and McDonalds.
-Golden Eagles fans will chant something about the U.S.S.R. and Stalin.
