The Daily Cardinal sports staff takes a look at five pressing questions leading into Wisconsin’s first-round matchup with Pittsburgh in the NCAA Tournament.
Six-seeded Wisconsin and 10-seeded Pittsburgh will meet for the 18th time Friday in St. Louis, Mo., in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The teams haven’t played since 2006, when the Badgers won 89-75 at the Kohl Center when Wisconsin was ranked No. 7 and Pitt ranked No. 2.
The First Amendment to the Constitution, found in the Bill of Rights, famously protects the right to assemble. Groups across campus and across the country have fully utilized this right. Groups such as Black Lives Matter, PETA and even Westboro Baptist Church lead massive protests. While the right to assemble is important, organizations have seemed to overlook one key word within the First Amendment: That word is peaceably. The First Amendment protects the right to peaceably assemble, not violently assemble. Unfortunately, many protesters and student activists seem to have forgotten this important word and many protests have taken a turn for the worst.
In May 1966, UW-Madison junior Ken Mate joined hundreds of other students for a sit-in at the Peterson administration building to peacefully protest university actions in the draft for the Vietnam War.
Player to watch: Melo Trimble, Maryland
INDIANAPOLIS—The presence of senior forward Shavon Shields made all the difference in the world in Nebraska’s (16-17 overall) 70-58 upset win over Wisconsin (20-12) Thursday night in the Big Ten Tournament at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Few things are a more recognizable harbinger of spring than the return of baseball. As Major Leaguers show up to camp in Florida and Arizona and teams made up of players of all ages dust off their old mitts, people around the country know that at long last, winter is coming to an end.
Just this past Sunday I took part in a privilege walk during the All Campus Leadership Conference. If you don’t know what a privilege walk is, it’s where everyone stands in a line shoulder-to-shoulder, someone reads off statements, and if you identify with a statement, you take a step forward. It’s meant to make people aware of their own privilege as well as how they compare to others in their community. If you haven’t done one, I highly suggest it, it’s such an easy and eye-opening experience. While these privilege walks bring up so many different points of privilege, I want to focus on one in particular that stuck out to me. Now first I should explain the demographics in the room. It was a group of ten people—nine were female and one was male. The moderator asked, “How many of you feel safe walking home alone at night?”
Eleven months of waiting. Torture. Distress. Agony. But we did it, folks. We made it.
Why are movies made? What motivates a director, a writer or a production company to invest time and money for a film? If recent projects in Hollywood provide any proof of this, it would seem that the answer is to make money. Every so often a cord seems to strike with audiences, and when the film industry finds that cord, they do whatever they can to make a profit off it by replicating what makes that cord resonate, leaving anything divergent of this trend lying in the shadows as a result. I enjoy big blockbuster productions immensely, but it was in these shadows that I found myself watching Cary Joji Fukunaga’s “Beasts of No Nation,” which sounded a much deeper, emotional cord than any mainstream film of recent memory.
Kanye West’s long-gestating, and perhaps still unfinished The Life of Pablo is a beautiful, heartfelt mess. Yeezy is perhaps more aesthetically indulgent than ever, and the conduct is essentially disorderly throughout. Thematically, Ye believes this album to be an unbridled, honest outpouring in service to his followers, detractors and to god. To anyone with an objective bone in their body, maybe it’s best to just sit back and enjoy listening to an eminent madman produce big, novel sounds again.
The United States Constitution says nothing about political parties. However, before it was even ratified, two different factions were already forming. On one side, favoring ratification, were the Federalists, and on the other side, opposing ratification, were the Anti-Federalists. These groups were important prior to the Constitution passing, but quickly disappeared after it was implemented. Sadly, despite these groups' quick exit, new parties would soon form.
He’s 6-foot-4,190 pounds and he’s been averaging 3.8 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game this season. Thursday afternoon, sneaking just ahead of the NBA trade deadline, the Chicago Bulls traded Kirk Hinrich, Sioux City, Iowa, legend, to the Atlanta Hawks for a second-round draft pick. Not only did the Bulls brain trust of John Paxson and Gar Forman trade away the man with the 334th-best field goal percentage in the NBA, but they traded away one of my irrationally favorite Chicago athletes of all time.
The state Assembly passed Gov. Scott Walker’s college affordability package early Wednesday in a marathon session, despite the concerns of some lawmakers that the bills do not go far enough.
After battling against each other for Big Ten supremacy for nearly 15 years, Bo Ryan and Tom Izzo could be headed into the Hall of Fame together.
“I love you like Kanye loves Kanye” was one of the standout lyrics belted from the speakers of Madison Square Garden at the Yeezy Season 3 reveal, the event that nearly ruptured the Internet with its completely left-field presentation of fashion, music and Kanye West himself. The phrase has floated around the Internet in the form of cheeky memes and Valentine’s cards, but its revival in The Life of Pablo perfectly summarizes the event that’s sure to be a climactic point in future Kanye documentaries and biographies. How exactly does Kanye love Kanye? By creating an impossibly detailed self-portrait, complete with all of his greatness and imperfection and presenting it in the only venue large enough to hold his vision. Yeezy Season 3 was a reflection of not just Kanye himself, but of our current culture’s fixation of self-portraiture and self-realization.
Maryland is currently in just its second season as a member of the Big Ten, but the Terrapins already look like they’re destined to become Wisconsin’s newest rival.
