After laying an absolute egg on national television this past weekend, Wisconsin gets the chance to redeem itself in the early ESPN slot. The team's struggles on the road at Purdue are well-known and have been beaten into the ground at this point. Getting one game closer to a winning record against Purdue would be pretty high on Bo Ryan's list I would imagine. Ryan is enters the game with a 7-9 record against the Boilers.
Keep an eye on Jared Berggren, who is only shooting 29.5% in Big Ten play, attempting only one free throw in those four games. The Badgers realistically could have the overall edge up front, despite Robbie Hummel's healthy return, because Purdue's bigs are so inexperienced. Wisconsin's backcourt may have it's hands full containing the perimeter quickness of the Boilermakers.
We shall see ...

Who's your key player for tonight's game?
a) Jordan Taylor
b) Jared Berggren
c) Ryan Evans

I think you can make a good argument for either of these 4 guys especially.

It does appear to be helping the other guards, however, especially Gasser. That deny defense is leaving the lane open.
Not to mention, there has been alot of bumping contact between Purdue defenders (mainly Jackson) and Taylor, and haven’t got a call yet.
