The Badger Men's Basketball team has their conference opponents set. But who they'll play in non-conference matchups is a puzzle slowly getting pieced together. Here is every know matchup so far.

November 4th vs Holy Cross

The Badgers will face the crusaders in their home opener at the Kohl Center according to Rocco Miller. Holy Cross finished 9th in the Patriot League last year and gives the Badgers a favorable matchup to ease the new lineup into the season.

November 15th vs Arizona

Last year Wisconsin and Arizona agreed on a home and away series between the two programs. Wisconsin headed down to Tucson last season in a brutal blowout and the Wildcats will visit the Kohl Center this year for hopefully a more competitive game.

November 22-24th vs. LSU, UCF, or Pittsburgh

As part of the Greenbriar Classic in West Virginia, Wisconsin will play either LSU, UCF or Pittsburgh. Depending on a win or loss, they will then play the winner or loser of the other two teams in a mini-bracket.

December 7th at Marquette

The annual rivalry game will be held in Milwaukee this year. Last season the Badgers beat the third ranked Golden Eagles.

December 14th vs Butler

The Badgers will face Butler at a "neutral site" in Indianapolis. Wisconsin will see a familiar face as longtime Ohio State coach Thad Matta now leads the Bulldogs.

TBD vs UTRGV

As part of the Greenbriar Classic, the Badgers will also have a game against the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.
