(3) Wisconsin plays (14) Montana this afternoon in today’s third March Madness first-round game.
The Badgers are heavy favorites in this East Regional matchup. They enter the game after a close, hard-fought loss to Michigan in the Big Ten finals.
Wisconsin led by one with less than two minutes remaining. Senior John Tonje, the Badgers’ leading scorer, struggled, shooting just 1-of-14 from the field. However, he’s expected to rebound this afternoon and help propel Wisconsin to an easy victory.
Montana has struggled against ranked teams this season, losing to Oregon by 31 and Tennessee by 35.
