1. Turnovers WI 19 JM 12. In the early going WI had 9 turnovers to JM's none
2. Steals WI 6 JM 14 But I supposed Madison fouled every they stole the ball, eh?
3. Fouls? James Madison had 1 more 20 - 19
4. Rebounds, JM by one 37 to 36

UW got beat in all categories and took an 11 point loss on the chin. This was an ass whipping, no excuses accepted.

I agree with one of your statements. You are not a pro-football fan.

Frist off, Tex tends to always thing the Badger and Bucks get screwed by the refs; I acknowlege that completely

Secondly, Wisconsin was clearly not ready to play. THey were outcoached, outworked, and James Madison seemed more talented and aggressive.

As you know I do bleed red and white and I'm not a Greg Gard Fan....as I say.....Greg Gard...great guy....always good, NEVEr great, and I want to be great.

With all that being said, the officials set the tone for this game by letting James Madison foul over and over and over without calling fouls. They were ultra bumpy off our dribbles, ultra bumpy when we picked up the dribble, and when we were posting they were pushing and shoving. Again, I get the tone the refs set, which was to pretty much let them play and ignore all of this.

And WI didn't lose due the refs. But with that being said, it was an absolute joke that James Madison didn't have double the fouls they did. We played soft, and passive defense and there was no foul discrepancy at all. It was a shitty job by the officials.

ONCE AGAIN, NOT BLAMING the loss on the refs. The Badgers were not ready in the first half and they couldn't take the jabs James Madison kept throwing. That's on the coaching and players.

But if I was Greg Gard I'd have completely lost my shit and Bo Ryan would have reacted very differently that Grego did

And YES, I know, I'm a horribly Bad Sport, and my wife constantly tells me that. But I turn that shit around and let her know, I'm an incredibly gracious winner )) I'm the best sport in the universe after a win !
