Both Gary Thorne and Barry Melrose seem to love this Wisconsin team.

Good to hear Gary Thorne calling hockey again.

Greetings from Motown
I am at Ford Field covering the Frozen Four for my job, so I will chime in with live updates as often as possible.
-Jake Harris
2-0 on a deflection from Derek Stepan!

Has been carried by their goalie. If we can get to him early like this, I like our chances.
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. ~ Terence Mann
Yeah good sign that UW already has 2 goals.

The Badger fans outnumber RIT's by a lot
But it’s hard to tell because the Sconnies are all over the stadium, while Rochester has basically an entire section to themselves.
-Jake Harris
You can tell ESPN doesn't do hockey games very much anymore.
The camera man has done a horrible job of following the puck and Thorne has messed up about five names on the Badgers.

Interesting setup at Ford Field
The rink stretches the length of the end zone and bleachers are set up on the football field.
-Jake Harris
I don't mind the set up, but I'm surprised that those temporary bleachers are at such a shallow angle.

Man, Murray had an empty net there on the one-timer and he got a little too fancy.

WAY better than the last time a Badger squad played here
That’d be the basketball team in 2008 against Davidson. The court was set up on the 50-yard-line with seats all around it… talk about depth perception issues.
-Jake Harris
I was on press row at that game and couldn't see anything. Horrible setup.

Barry Melrose has underdog fever right now.

Badgers lead 10-6 in shots on goal after the first period
They just look better than RIT right now.
-Jake Harris
Justin Schultz with that one
Balanced offense tonight… Assisted by Brendan Smith and Derek Stepan
-Jake Harris
Wow!
I’m on the Madison campus right now doing HW, just checked it and wow! Go Badgers!
RIT proving it doesn't belong...
And Wisconsin proving it doesn’t lose to hot small schools in every athletic tournament…
-Jake Harris
maybe Bo should swallow his pride, walk across the hall next week and ask “so, what’s the trick Mike?”

And this game is... OVA!
I’m off to freeze at the White Sox game.
Bucky's 5th Quarter. SB Nation's Wisconsin Badgers community.
That'll do it, folks!
Final Score:
Wisconsin 7, RIT 1
Badgers advance to the Championship Game on Saturday vs. either Boston College or Miami (Ohio)!
Heading down for interviews now.
We’ll have much more up here later tonight.
Thanks for being with us at Bucky’s Fifth Quarter!
