The 10th ranked Wisconsin Badger's mens basketball team has been the most consistent team in the Big Ten since Bo Ryan arrived in 2001, making the NCAA tournament each year and finishing near the top of the league every year. The Badgers have made it to 9 straight NCAA tournaments, with a 10th one coming this year. Only a handful of schools such as Duke, Arizona, and Michigan State (among others) have gone to the NCAAs 9 straight times. How does Wisconsin do it?
In terms of star power, the Badgers are lacking. They are a team that can score 20 points on any given night. They are a well-oiled machine and everyone knows their role.
They dont make stupid mistakes and are consistently in the NCAA leaders in fewest turnovers per game. They have made more free throws than their opponents have attempted.
Its a simple formula and they execute it well.
