UW Field House Madison, Wisconsin

It's rematch time! The Badgers are coming off a Wednesday night sweep of the Huskers, which has moved them into a 3-way tie for first place in the Big Ten. The Gophers, who occupy the next rung down in the standings, were also home Wednesday, where they swept the Spartans. Will the Badgers be able to redeem themselves from the early season sweep in Minneapolis?

16-3, 10-1 Big Ten		13-6, 8-3 Big Ten

Last meeting 2022, not 2021. Unfortunately still fresh in my mind.

Minnesota sweeps after Nebraska breaks Wisconsin's spirit.

The suburbs of the Twin Cities are responsible for 80% of Badger athletics success.

Greater Chicagoland might have a say on that.

I tried to check on the Gophers' stats to see if I should replace Wenaas with Wucherer, but the webpage froze up.

Maybe just replace Booth, who has missed the last 2 matches, presumably with an illness.  Wucherer is 2nd on the team in KPS 2.98 to Wenaas' 2.43.

Not the point.  Just thought not having Wucherer in the 5 pics of players to watch was odd.

OK,

Now I ask what I always think when I see/hear "player X should have been an all-star, should have been first team AA", etc:

Who of the five there should have been left off?
