Wisconsin basketball continued its perfect February with a decisive victory of 95-74, Illinois on Tuesday.

Badgers have been 5-0 since the beginning of the month with triumphs on Northwestern, Indiana, IowaPurdue and Illinois. The team increased both in the Big Ten ranking and in the national classification. This is n ° 7 in Kenpom, n ° 10 in the net of the NCAA and closing at first place of the conference.

The resurgence of Wisconsin has been better described by its performance since the loss of Illinois on December 10. This defeat of 86-80 was the team’s third consecutive defeat at the time, leaving it 8-3 over the year. Since then, badgers have been 13-2 in total and 11-2 in game Big Ten.

The seasons tend to overcome momentum fluctuations, both in the positive and negative direction. The Wisconsin interrupted its minor slide at the start of the season in a decisive manner. Now the team seems to be a competitor to make a deep race in March Madness.

Just before the Wisconsin ended his sequence on Tuesday of nine consecutive defeats against Illinois, Purdue, the best rank abandoned his third consecutive match, a defeat of 75-66 against n ° 14 Michigan state. The boilermakers fell from their old point at the top of the conference during last week. As a result, Wisconsin continues to take major steps.

After Tuesday’s action and the big victory of badgers over Illinois, here is a look up to the conference landscape.
