Analyzing the floor, the Wisconsin Basketball March ceiling and most likely

The Wisconsin Badgers made a strong running of the Big Ten tournament, with high victories on UCLA and Michigan State before a possible loss of the title game in Michigan. Because the Big Ten tournament ended and NCAA tournament supports areIt is time to move concentration to the great dance itself.

Wisconsin did not obtain a favorable draw, even as a seed no. 3. He was set to Denver, Colorado, instead of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, plus he has to play on Thursday morning instead of Friday. That the additional journey and limited rest could play a factor after the team played four games in as many days during the conference tournament.

Wisconsin drew no. 14 mountain seeds as an opponent in the first round, with whom it should match well. However, the potential game of the team in the second round is not cakewalk, because the team will face either by the seeds no. 6, or VCU no. Byu has 9-1 in the last ten games, that loss that came to the Top-Seed Houston in the conference tour. VCU also played a strong basketball at the end of it, going 11-1 in the last 12 games of the season, including a Tournament A10. Anyway, Wisconsin will not have the easy way to Sweet Sixteen to whom the fans could have hoped.

With the rapid proximity of the first round, here is the floor, ceiling and result most likely in the NCAA tournament of 2025:

Floor: Loss of the second round to Byu or Vcu

As I mentioned, the battles match Grizzlies from Montana, offering a very good chance to advance beyond the first round. However, the match in the second round of the team should be much more difficult. Both possible opponents played a great basketball late.

Wisconsin said on Sunday that a bad performance in three filming points could hurt his offensive ceiling and the general game level. If this performance is repeated, the badgers could easily lose in the second round either for Cougars or Rams.

Ceiling: Final Four loss at Midwest Regional Champion

Many should go correctly for Badgers to make the first Four in 2015. It should pass Alabama, who can be without the striker Grant Nelson, who was injured in the dry tour. Next, Wisconsin would need a top-level performance against lead in the elite eight. Cooper Flagg, the star of Blue Devils, works back from a tension of the ankle suffered during the ACC tour. As with Alabama, Wisconsin may need a star to not be in maximum power.

A four -round final is not likely. But if Wisconsin plays at the most absolute and will receive some good breaks, he could happen.

Most likely result: Sweet 16 Lose in Alabama

The most likely result of Wisconsin in the NCAA tournament is a victory from the first round to Montana, the second round victory over the Byu/vcu, then a sweet 16 loss for Alabama. Byu was gathered this season, but is still in the 11th place in general in Kenpom’s offensive efficiency. If Wisconsin can catch her on a bad shooting day, that game could turn into a pretty easy victory. The same thought also applies to VCU, which is less offensive than Cougars, ranking Kenpom’s best crime in Sport.

Generally, the head coach Greg Gard was probably the most talented team of his mandate and the best general group of the program, since he ended Fours consecutive in 2014 and 2015. The fence is 6-6 in the tournament of taking the main coach in 2015-16. His team is just 2-4 in the event from Sweet 16 trips in 2016 and 2017. He has long been late for a deep running a postsezon in which his team reaches his ceiling.
