Watch: Badgers celebrate after win over Oregon
The Wisconsin men’s basketball team defeated the Oregon Ducks, 61-58, in the third round of the NIT on Tuesday. The team advances to face North Texas in the semifinals in Las Vegas in one week.
After a roller-coaster ride of a regular season, Greg Gard and his Badgers have found a groove in the postseason, advancing deep in the NIT.
To this point, Steven Crowl (36 points versus Bradley), Chucky Hepburn (27 points versus Liberty) and Max Klesmit (18 points versus Oregon) have led the team in points in the three tournament contests.
If anyone was wondering if the Badgers cared about the NIT, this locker room video after the game answers that question. They seem determined to win the whole thing and bring home some hardware on March 30.
