2007–08 Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball team
The 2007–08 Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball team represented University of Wisconsin–Madison. The head coach was Bo Ryan, coaching his seventh season with the Badgers. The team played its home games at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin, and is a member of the Big Ten Conference. The team finished with a final record of 31–5 which set the school record for wins in a season. Season Notes. This was the second of back-to-back 30+ win season for Wisconsin. Brian Butch and Michael Flowers were seniors; Marcus Landry and  Joe Krabbenhoft were juniors; Trevon Hughes and Jason Bohannon were sophomores. All contributed to the team's success. Wisconsin won the Big Ten regular season title outright, won the Big Ten tournament championship, and were only awarded a #3 seed. It apparently was a down year for the Big Ten as only four teams made the NCAA tournament. Wisconsin handled #14 seed Cal State Fullerton 71-56 in the first round. Then had to be on "upset alert" for #11 seed cinderella Kansas St, who boasted stud freshman Michael Beasley. However, Wisconsin prevailed 72-55. In the Sweet Sixteen they  ran into the true cinderella, #10 seed Davidson with Steph Curry, and lost 56-73. Trevon Hughes was hobbled with a bum ankle and only played 11 minutes in that game. This was the year all #1 seeds made the Final Four, and Kansas beat Memphis in the championship. Awards.
