Wisconsin Badgers at Virginia Cavaliers

Prior history in the event: Wisconsin is 9-9, Virginia is 11-6

History against each other: The series is tied 2-2. Wisconsin won the last meeting 48-38 (I know…) in 2013.

Over the last several years, both of these teams have been dedicated to being among the best defensive teams in the country. If you need proof of that, look at the score of their last meeting. Ethan Happ will be the focal point of the Badgers and a possible Player of the Year candidate while Virginia will yet again rely on an all-around team scoring effort.
