Bracket projection: Wisconsin
As always, unique style makes Badgers a tough tournament presence
Lunardi's Logic
One of the stranger Wisconsin seasons in recent memory could get even more strange. The Badgers, who couldn't win big games at home, were 10-5 away from Madison over the likes of Ohio State, Indiana, UNLV and BYU. I have this sense of the East Bracket falling apart and Wisconsin being the sleeper team in this year's Final Four.
