At the half, #17 Wisconsin is losing to Illinois 17-7.

I have two questions; 1) what decade is this? The 1920's? and 2) did Dean Smith go to Madison and install the four corners?

I have seen 4th grade rec league games with more scoring in a half than this
 
As good of a coach as Bo Ryan is, I would hate to be a fan of Wisconsin. Just ugly basketball.

It's football
 
yea, i thought it was football also. lol, but good point if it were basketball
 
But what's it say about Wisconsin's style, basketball-wise, that the score didn't seem far fetched?

Why would any top player want to play at Wisconsin?

Well didn't Wisconsin have a game last year that was played in the 30's? Not the time period, the score. They don't have a flux capacitor, don't be absurd.

Wasn't in the Big10 tourney? Final score vs. Penn State was like 37-33

Yea i think a big 10 tourny game last year was played in the 30s

Don't they have the one of the longest consecutive streaks of making the tourney? Gonzaga, Duke, Kansas, and Wisconsin, I believe, are the only ones with streaks dating to the 90s.

Great campus, great fans, great coach, great academics. And there are actually a lot of guys who like halfcourt basketball.

That said, UW doesn't generally get top playes. Bo Ryan does it with smoke and mirrors
