The Badgers have their first significant test of the season looming this week as they sit at 2-0 on the young year.
With a 74-64 win over Eastern Illinois that was more lopsided than the score shows and a 92-58 win over Arkansas Pine-Bluff that started with a 25-0 Badgers run.

This week, it gets tougher, specifically on Friday with a rivalry renewed. Wisconsin gets UW-Green Bay at the Kohl Center on Tuesday at 4:00 PM CT and Marquette on Friday at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
Green Bay and new head coach Will Ryan opened the year with a 30-point loss at Minnesota, while Marquette has been impressive in two early non-conference games to start 2-0. The Golden Eagles have a game that Badger fans should keep an eye on tomorrow against Oklahoma State, before they meet Wisconsin on Friday.
