Men’s Basketball: No. 4 Badgers open December with in-state foe UW-Green Bay

When the No. 4 University of Wisconsin men’s basketball team (2-0) welcomes the Green Bay Phoenix (0-1) to the Kohl Center Tuesday afternoon, it will be just the 11th matchup all-time between these two programs.

History on the court between Wisconsin and Green Bay started in the 2009-10 season when Green Bay defeated Wisconsin in overtime. Tuesday’s affair will be the 11th consecutive year with a meeting between the teams, and the Badgers will be looking to take their 10th straight game in the series to move to 10-1 all-time against the Phoenix.

Green Bay does boast a new head coach this year, however, one that Badger basketball fans are all too familiar with.
