The “90-Point Club”: A Historic Offensive Stretch
For the first time in recent memory, Wisconsin has scored 90+ points in back-to-back Big Ten games. The Badgers aren’t just winning; they are overwhelming opponents with pace and efficiency.
The catalyst during this stretch has been the backcourt play of Nick Boyd and John Blackwell. After dropping 32 points against Rutgers, Boyd played the facilitator role perfectly against Penn State, while Blackwell and Braeden Carrington combined for 34 points.
The stat to watch today: 3-Point Shooting.
In their win over Penn State, Wisconsin drained 15 threes. When the ball is moving inside-out through Nolan Winter, this offense looks nearly unguardable.
