The Wisconsin Badgers are ranked 69th in the NET after the first NET rankings of the basketball season were released. This is about 50 rankings away from where many thought they would be at the beginning of the season. However, a blowout loss to BYU (13) and a frustrating loss to TCU (54). The holes for Wisconsin were completely revealed.
The season is still young, and the Badgers do not have a bad loss. Losing to a NET 54 is not a resume killer at all. In fact, TCU is trending in a direction where they could be a top 25 team before too long, and that loss may actually not implicate Wisconsin at all.
