The Badgers have been showing a solid trend of victories and impressive stats in their recent games. In their last match against Chicago State Cougars, they dominated with an 80-53 win. The team showcased a balanced offense and defense with a 50 percent field goal percentage and an impressive 76 percent from the free-throw line. Their ability to control the paint was evident as they scored 46 points inside and outrebounded their opponents by seven.


Prior to that victory, Wisconsin took on Jacksonville State Gamecocks at home and secured a comfortable win with a score of 75-60. Their defensive prowess was on display as they tallied ten steals while maintaining an efficient offense with a field goal percentage of 47 percent.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Badgers; they faced a tough challenge against Arizona Wildcats on the road where they fell short by scoring 73 points against Arizona's staggering 98 points. Despite this setback, Wisconsin showed resilience by maintaining high shooting accuracy from beyond the arc at approximately 48 percent.


The Kohl Center has been advantageous for Wisconsin; it is where they've recently shown their strength and ability to command games through both offensive efficiency and defensive solidity. With these trends in mind, fans can expect another robust performance from their team as they aim to capitalize on home-court advantage once more.


The upcoming game is scheduled for January 13th at 5 PM local time (UTC) at Kohl Center in Madison, WI. Fans looking forward to catching every dribble can tune into BTN network channel number 610 for live coverage of what promises to be an exciting matchup between two competitive teams.
