Ha! All the Wiscy fans could talk about was how the Ducks would have no answer for Happ. It's going to take poor Happ a few months to stop looking over his shoulder for Wooten. What a game! Shades of Jordan Bell. Bring on UC Irvine!

Gosh look what happened. yay Ducks!
Happ made some fine non-shooting plays otherwise this would have been a massacre.

DUUUUUCKS!! Great second half both offensively and defensively

Next up is UC Irvine. Cannot take them for granted but this team is playing like they figured it out, not because they're getting streaky performances. Such an awesome team that they've become.

Yep, they looked legit against K State and we could definitely lose to them. But, since fans are allowed to look ahead... wouldn't it be awesome to get a shot at Virginia? What a cool month of basketball this has turned into for us!

Yes, it is amazing that the Badgers did as well in the Big 10 as they did, Happ looked to be a level ahead of his teammates. He had great footwork at the basket, but the Ducks managed to keep him from getting touches and all the Badgers could do was shoot 3's. Happ was not a big player on defense.

Wisconsin star Ethan Happ, a 2nd-team All-American, closed out his college career with an underwhelming finale in the loss to Oregon. Happ finished with 12 points and 8 rebounds — both below his season averages of 17.5 and 10.1, respectively — and also had five turnovers and had his shot blocked three times. He also finished the night with a game-worst -22 plus-minus rating. Without him playing at his best, the Badgers simply didn't have enough to counter Oregon's diversified attack.

Great win for the Ducks! The stat in this tweet says a ton about upsets this year.

I was a little surprised to see the O/U set at 116.5. I would've thought lower.

Sure hope you didn't put any money on the O/U.

Some Badger fans are saying it's the refs, if this , if that, but others are saying the Ducks played very well, played better and that was that.

We are battle tested from having such bad officials that nothing gets in our heads now.

They were upset that the out of bounds call was made when replay showed his foot didn't touch the line, but it clearly showed him travelling. yawn.
Prior to that when Happ made that play on the sideline diving out of bounds, the replay I saw showed his toe on the line but it wasn't a good look. Happ also had a pretty killer "hook" move inside and what is lost in the block/charge debate is also "player out of control" when the offense tries to plow through someone, regardless of whether the defender is set like a statue (or their feet are moving) or not.

REFS??? What game were they watching??? I thought the reffing couldn't get any worse than Pac-12 but man was I wrong Oregon got hosed most of the game by those "refs".
