The Badgers needed all 40 minutes to put away the Golden Gophers in what was a massive test after an upset win over Michigan. For the second straight game, Wisconsin got the job done in crunch time, thanks to contributions from two guards.

The Badgers, somewhat out of necessity, have played small recently, and it's given them another way to attack opponents moving forward

When the Badgers faced Purdue on Jan. 3, John Blackwell was in the midst of a major scoring rut. Fast forward two games, and Blackwell has been named the week's most outstanding player in all of college basketball.

The Badgers defeated UCLA and Michigan last week, a stretch that has drastically altered Wisconsin's season outlook. As their win total has grown, so has their confidence.

The Badgers had a hectic seven days of transfer portal action. The moving and shaking provided clear risers and fallers.

It may have taken longer than Wisconsin had hoped, but the Badgers are starting to play with the mental edge and physical toughness that had been lacking in the team's blowout losses.

The Wisconsin Badgers just landed one of the top safeties in the transfer portal in Missouri's Marvin Burks. The rising senior could wind up being Wisconsin's most impactful member of the secondary during 2026.

After losing three starters and several reserve offensive linemen to graduation and the transfer portal this offseason, the Wisconsin Badgers have taken major strides toward rebuilding the room.
