Wisconsin matchup will likely be decided by Badgers’ big three

The No. 17 Wisconsin Badgers have a big three: forward Nigel Hayes, guard Bronson Koenig and forward Ethan Happ. The Badgers have other role players who make varying impacts on a sporadic basis, but the team tends to go as its big three goes.

Wisconsin’s first loss of the season came in a tricky road game at Creighton. Happ had just five field goal attempts in the contest. His measly seven points and four turnovers played a major role in Bucky’s demise. At first glance you might think Koenig had a solid night as he put up 21 points, but a closer look reveals a different story.
