1. To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar
The Badgers (3-3) expanded on a positive 1-1 showing in a pair of extremely close games on their road trip to San Diego last weekend, pulling out a gritty 64-51 win over Wake Forest (5-2) Wednesday in the Big Ten/ACC challenge.
Coming off their worst shooting performance of the season, the Wisconsin Badgers (4-3) will face another tough test as they take on the No. 14 Syracuse Orange (6-0) at the Carrier Dome Wednesday night.
Hampered by their worst shooting performance in nearly a decade, the Wisconsin Badgers (4-3) fell to the No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners (4-0) in a blowout Sunday, losing 65-48.
After the Badgers (2-2) dropped two games in a row, head coach Bobbie Kelsey needed her players to step up and show improvement going into the SDSU Thanksgiving Tournament in San Diego, Calif. Fortunately, the Badgers responded by correcting both short-term mistakes and long-term tendencies, ultimately leading to a hard-fought 54-52 win against Delaware (2-2) Friday.
A mediocre first half may have had some fans worried, but a big second half squashed any concerns over a repeat performance of the Western Illinois game at the Kohl Center Wednesday night.
After two consecutive blowout losses to Drake and Dayton, the Wisconsin Badgers are hoping for better results in the SDSU Thanksgiving Classic, where they will face the Delaware Blue Hens and the host San Diego State Aztecs.
In principle, free throws are supposed to be, well, free. They are undefended and unimpeded by defenders. But nothing for Wisconsin (1-2) in its 87-64 loss against the Dayton Flyers (3-0) came free, especially its free throws.
Faced with its toughest test of the young season, Wisconsin looked more like the team that dropped its season opener to Western Illinois and less like the one that impressed in wins over Siena and North Dakota.
After their abysmal home-opening loss to Western Illinois, Wisconsin (2-1) has bounced back nicely with two straight blowout wins and looks to extend its winning streak this Friday in the 2K Hoops Classic Tournament against the Georgetown Hoyas (0-2) at Madison Square Garden.
Coming into the 2015-’16 season, Drake University (2-0) was projected to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference. Not only did they return four starters, but they have the preseason conference player of the year, sophomore forward Lizzy Wendell, who averaged 21.8 points per game last season. Unfortunately for the Badgers (1-1), Drake’s experience and star power proved too much for UW to handle, as they lost for the first time this season, 89-70, Wednesday night.
If there’s anything that advancements in technology have brought to movies, it’s the ability to do more. Production has gotten bigger, effects have gotten better and as a result, filmmakers believe they can make movies better than previous generations. This has resulted in a number of remakes and reboots that have spanned a variety of genres, from sci-fis like “Star Trek” to more recent superhero films like “Fantastic Four.” The quality of all of these remakes varies, but here’s the real question to ask: Are they all really necessary?
Heading into Wednesday night’s game against the Drake University Bulldogs, only one of the two University of Wisconsin basketball teams remains undefeated. Here’s a hint: It’s not the team that has gone to two consecutive Final Fours. Instead, it is the Wisconsin women’s basketball team (1-0) that hopes to compound its win against Louisiana Tech with another quality victory against Drake (1-0).
It won’t erase the memory of Friday’s stunning loss to Western Illinois, but Wisconsin’s dominating 92-65 win over Siena (0-2) Sunday night should have fans feeling a little better about the prospects of this young Badgers team moving forward.
Even before the regular season has started, head coach Bobbie Kelsey has made it clear she thinks this year’s team can be great. Kelsey has high hopes for her veteran group and believes her team can make the NCAA tournament, a feat that Wisconsin women’s basketball has not accomplished since the 2009-’10 season. Even though the tournament is a while down the road, Kelsey knows that the journey has already begun in their exhibition games.
Filling the production void left on offense by the departure of Frank Kaminsky and Sam Dekker will be one of the biggest challenges facing a young Wisconsin squad this season.
Coming off one of the most successful seasons in program history, the Wisconsin Badgers are faced with a future filled with uncertainty heading into the 2015-16 season.
While the Wisconsin men’s basketball team is entering a new era as a result of both Frank Kaminsky and Sam Dekker’s departures, the women’s basketball team is defined by continuity and experience.
Saintseneca’s dramatic third album Such Things has 15 tracks that are all unique in their own right, but stand together as a cohesive effort. The band uses a wide range of instruments to create a weaving and ethereal album full of hidden gems. After achieving commercial success for their sophomore album Dark Arc, the group from Columbus, Ohio, have expanded their sound and deepened the texture to explore new territory.
While making my slow exploration through the uncharted “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain,” I’ve also been watching “Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots” with my partner. The Metal Gear Solid games are subtitled “Tactical Espionage Action,” a title which betrays its political edge, stealth-action gameplay and its total pretension. The series is named for a ridiculous bipedal mechanical suit, designed after the rise of Mecha anime in the ’80s, one supposedly representing total military superiority because “it can launch a nuke from anywhere.” It’s also a series which has featured cyborg ninjas, a Russian commando who shoots bees out of his arms, a terrorist named Revolver “Shalashaska” Ocelot and a severed arm which, attached to said Revolver Ocelot, takes over his entire personality with that of the deceased.
