Fun offense today
31 of 60 from 3’s makes up for the Purdue game, and today the team played what had to be their best game of the year at the right moment in the season. If only they can bottle this up through March, watch out!

An overlooked point
Maryland played last night and comes back not even 24 hours - tired and Badgers made shots.

Win tomorrow & today means something.
His best 3-point shooting performance, some may say :)
When Steven Crowl becomes Stephen Crowl, good things happen. He sure set a tone for a long-ball shooting clinic today! pic.twitter.com/zsPTnwbWUO

It's a good start
Nice to have a definitive win with widespread contributions and 3-point shots on fire. Keep the momentum rolling in the days ahead, gentlemen! #OnWisconsin

It is entertainment, right?
I've given up on trying to figure this team out.

But I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Strong but not wrong
Meaningless. Maryland are objectively bad in a mediocre conference. The standard for the Badgers should be beating tourney qualifying level teams. Tomorrow will be the start of their real tournament. Think they will hit 64% from 3 again?

No pressure?
Very encouraging today.

Looked like they played very loose and free.
Probably not but a good sign
Keep building. I know we won’t shoot like that again but use this momentum

How could you not?
If Badgers shoot 64% from 3 for the rest of their games I like their chances.

Word on the street is ...
Final 4

Since Nebraska at home?
This may be their most complete victory that they have had in quite awhile. Nice to see them play well on both offense and defense.

An aggressive and efficient Crowl is key
Two things they needed (3 point shooting and the old Crowl) both happened. Keep it going.

I see what you did there
Taylor Swift isn't the only one going back to December.

Good use of an emoji
Making even a few threes is all this team needs to play deep into March. Today was🤯
— David Roelke (@droelke) March 14, 2024
Oh captain, my captain
Pretty simple, this team is awfully good when they shoot the three and Crowl plays well! #captainobvious

Happy for him
I had a good time, Jim. A real good time. This is reminiscent of early in the season.

Can't always be said for tequila
Shots fell, so the outcome was positive.

Looked in rhythm today
Time to give Conner early heat checks.

Back to themselves
16 threes??? Who is this team and what did you do with my Badgers?? pic.twitter.com/wwwfLf8eAC

Math checks out
When we make 3's we win

As Cubs fans say, 'There's always tomorrow'
Well the doubters can take a day off now. Happy for Badgers to reset mind and realize things can be this good. Now for a battle with the Cats. Hope our fans can give a bit of a cheering advantage on Friday.
