The Wisconsin Badgers had an exhibition game against UW-Platteville that was very similar to their exhibition game against UW-River Falls last season. In the sense that many Badger fans are nervous now heading into the season. Yet, two weeks later, that Badger team went on to beat Arizona. This is why you have exhibitions: to knock the dust off, get your playing legs under you again, and, of course, develop the chemistry a team needs to succeed.
Knocking the dust off is exactly what this year's exhibition win over UW-Platteville looked like. Especially shooting the basketball.
