After nearly a week off, the #17 ranked Wisconsin Badgers (19-8, 10-4) are back in action Tuesday night to host the Nebraska Huskers (13-14, 4-10) at the Kohl Center. BTN has TV coverage with tip-off at 8:00 PM CT.
These two squads met on January 6th in Lincoln for Wisconsin's first B1G road game of the year. The Badgers and Huskers both debuted their alternate "Bleed Out" Adidas uniforms for the game (pictured above), and they'll be wearing these threads again for tonight's game.
The last meeting was a classic defensive battle that was played while the Badgers were still looking for answers on the offensive side of the ball. The Badgers controlled momentum for most of the game, until a Husker three pointer with 6:19 to play gave Nebraska their first lead of the game.

This video is on pretty much every sports blog on the internet, but I thought Ryan Evans and his jump shot free throw needs to be addressed.
Evans is shooting 41% from the line this season. That’s pitiful.
BUT! BUT! BUT!
He’s only shooting 39% from the field. Oh, it gets better – he’s just 2-of-23 from 3-point range.
Evans told the Madison newspaper that he’ll stick with...

Bruesewitz channeling his inner 'Kramer'
MADISON, Wis. Wisconsin forward Mike Bruesewitz is no stranger to the spotlight when it comes to his hairstyle. The red-headed senior has sported a mop-topped fro, worn cornrows and shaved his head to raise money for multiple sclerosis.
And now comes a new look, one seemingly inspired by the fictional character Cosmo Kramer on Seinfeld. This week, Bruesewitz's 'do features...

Ryan Evans could try jump shots at foul line
MADISON, Wis. Ryan Evans is tired of the airballs, the bank shots, the free-throw attempts that clank back rim with no chance of falling through the hoop.
Wisconsin's much-maligned forward is willing to go to great lengths to fix the problem while there is still time even if it means shooting jump shots from the foul line.
