Wisconsin fans react to the Badgers’ 56-54 NIT loss to North Texas
Wisconsin’s NIT run came to a disappointing end on Tuesday evening in Las Vegas. The Badgers failed to score for the final 9:07 of the contest as North Texas rallied to come away with a 56-54 win over Wisconsin.
The Badgers had a 41-29 lead at halftime, but a 13-point second half did Wisconsin in and represented many of the struggles UW has had this season on the offensive end of the floor.
The program’s attention now turns to reloading for 2023-24.
Here is how Badger Twitter reacted to a tough ending to the 2022-23 campaign:

Big Ten basketball, but not the good kind...
Final 9:07 in a college basketball game and didn’t score a point
Pure Wisconsin. Pure B1G.
