1. LAST TIME OUT: Wisconsin shot the ball comfortably in its season opener against St. Francis Brooklyn, converting 43.9 percent of its shots from the field and 45.5 percent from 3-point range. Defensively, the Badgers forced 12 turnovers and converted that into 21 points. Wisconsin had three players score in double figures led by Johnny Davis (15), and rounded out by Chucky Hepburn (13) and Steven Crowl (11). UW led by as many as 32 points and went on to win its sixth-straight home opener.
 
2. JOHNNY'S JAM: Sophomore guard Johnny Davis made his first career start Tuesday night. With a pair of buckets, Davis ignited a 12-0 run for the Badgers in the first half, but his most electric play came in the middle of UW's 15-0 run when he stole the ball and slammed it home to increase the lead by 18. His 15 points were two shy of his career high and his five assists marked a career high.
