I'm looking forward to it. It should be a good game and this is the first time I can remember both teams being ranked this high.
The rivalry isn't anywhere near where it was when Al McGuire was the coach for the Warriors. There is a famous picture (at least famous in Wisconsin sporting circles) of McGuire celebrating a last second shot to beat the Badgers 59-58 in 1974. I'm going to post it here without comment except to say that Al is the guy on the table with his back to the camera.
This is a file photo from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel and can be found in a slide show as part of the jsonline.com coverage of McGuires death in 2001.
Enjoy the game everyone.
