The Badgers’ opponents in the first round of the NCAA Tournament Friday may just be one of the hottest teams in college basketball.
Colgate is riding a 15-game winning streak.
The Raiders started the season losing 10 of their first 14, but they caught fire midway through the season.
Colgate has the size and some of the best 3-point shooters anywhere, connecting on just over 40-percent.
The Raiders were regular-season and tournament champions of the Patriot League this season.
Wisconsin will be a solid favorite in the game but their first-round opponents won’t be a pushover.
The Wisconsin/Colgate game starts at 8:50 p.m. Friday at the Fiserv Forum.
