    James Madison came out playing very physical against Wisconsin. The refs allowed it. It took Wisconsin half the game to adjust to it. Once they did, they were able to score. They scored 41 points in the second half.

    When I was coaching, I would often sarcastically point out to referees that pressure defense is really effective if you let the players bump up all the way up the court off the ball, and in the post.
    They let that happen Thursday. I made a few enemies with the stripes when I was coaching
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Why didn't they use a timeout to make these adjustments in the first half?
    Why did they not make a better effort to feed Crowl in the post and allow him to pass out to take advantage of the aggressive double team?
    Why did they always drive into double teams instead of pulling up passing out?
    Ultimately, tha players needed to execute, but I doubt they were all ignoring coaching.
