Tigers on losing end in record-breaking night
Savannah State (3-8) saw host South Dakota State break multiple school records Tuesday night in a 139-72 defeat. The Tigers trailed by a whopping score of 90-33 at halftime en route to the lopsided loss. Jaquan Dotson paced Savannah State with 17 points on 7-of-16 shooting with 11 rebounds and two steals. Zach Sellers added 1p points and four assists. The Tigers shot 27-of-79 from the floor including 12-of-52 from 3-point range. Meanwhile, South Dakota State shot 53-of-87 on field goal attempts and 23-of-34 on 3-point tries.
Badgers fall at Marquette in OT
Wisconsin dropped a 74-69 thriller Saturday afternoon at Marquette as it was outscored 13 in the extra session. Ethan Happ led the Badgers (8-2) with a game-best 34 points on 16-of-21 shooting with 11 rebounds, four assists and three steals. Nate Reuvers contributed 11 points, four boards and two assists. D’Mitrik Trice tallied 10 points, seven caroms and five dimes. Wisconsin shot 27-of-54 from the floor, but were only 5-of-24 from 3-point range and an equally dismal 10-of-21 from the charity stripe.

Prediction:
Well, there are few teams in the country worse than Savannah State. The only truly respectful performance it had this season was in the season opener as it lost by a count of 98-83 at Texas A&M. Since then, it has been all losses by 20 or more points plus three wins against also-pitiful teams. As long as Wisconsin is a 36.5-point favorite or less, I’m taking the hosts here.
