According to CBS Sports bracketologist Jerry Palm, Wisconsin still has a long way to go to shore up its NCAA Tournament resume.
With Wednesday’s home win over Iowa, the Badgers improved to 16-11 overall and 8-9 in the Big Ten.
The Badgers are among CBS Sports‘ last four teams in. Palm had this to say regarding Wisconsin’s latest win over Iowa:
- Wisconsin won at home! The Badgers pounded Iowa 64-52 to pick up just their fourth win in nine tries against teams in the top three quadrants. Wisconsin’s MOV-based metrics are dragging, especially the NET, but it is right around 40th in those that attempt to measure the quality of a team’s resume. That’s why the Badgers resume looks better than the metrics might indicate. They still have a ways to go if they hope to make the NCAA Tournament.
