As for what the Badgers are hoping to see? Greg Gard and company would love to see this exciting offense continue in which they continue to score big numbers. They have put over 100 against Iowa and recently had 94 against Purdue. This is the way in which the Badgers plan to defeat the Illini. They will get hot and go on runs from both inside and outside. Against Purdue, they had an impressive assist-to-turnover ratio and will hope to see that follow them into the game against Illinois. This is a game as a Wisconsin fan; you'll want to make sure you tee up, whether on your TV or streaming device.
