If you’re as excited about basketball season as we are, you’ve come to the right place for UW men’s basketball coverage.

Tonight, we’re live from the Kohl Center as the Wisconsin Badgers host the Oakland Golden Grizzlies.

Oakland is off to an 0-1 start after losing Saturday to Eastern Michigan 81-77 at home. Wisconsin enters the game after dominating IPFW a week ago in its home opener.

The Golden Grizzlies, like the Mastodons, hail from the Summit League.

Oakland was picked to win its conference this season, so they should provide a stiffer test than the overmatched and undermanned IPFW squad, which was picked to finish sixth in the Summit League.

Tonight’s game is on BigTenNetwork.com, but why pay to watch their streaming video when you can get live coverage from The Badger Herald?

Sports Editors Jordan Schelling and Michael Bleach will be bringing unparalleled live blog coverage tonight.
