Just after Paul Chryst’s football squad wraps up a Big Ten West divisional battle in West Lafayette, Ethan Happ, D’Mitrik Trice and the Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team look for a weekend win at home against Houston Baptist.

Wisconsin (2-0) comes off a 77-68 win at Xavier on Tuesday night in a Gavitt Games match-up. The trio of Happ, Trice and Brad Davison scored 71 of those points, with the latter also throwing in some late game theatrics with his Florida Gator “chomp.”

Houston Baptist (1-1) lost its season opener against Arizona back on Nov. 7 before defeating Fordam last Saturday. Sophomore guard Ian Dubose leads the way in scoring currently, averaging 13.5 points per contest while also contributing 4.5 rebounds per game. Another sophomore guard, Oliver Lynch-Daniels, has scored 9.5 points and grabbed five boards per contest. Forward Phillip Mackenzie leads the team in the pulling down rebounds (6.5 per game).

This is the first ever match-up between the two programs, but Wisconsin is 5-0 against Southland Conference schools.

After Saturday night’s match-up, the Badgers head to the 2018 Battle for Atlantis tournament—with its first match-up against Stanford on Nov. 21.
