Breaking down Wisconsin basketball and NCAA Tournament seeding with Bart Torvik

Badger Observer went back to its roots in chatting with an old friend about March Madness and more.

Watch and listen to Badger Observer’s conversation with old friend Bart Torvik, who runs the popular analytics site T-Rank, about the University of Wisconsin basketball team, the Big Ten Tournament, obviously the NCAA Tournament, and more.

Check out the discussion about the following:

  • What exactly is T-Rank, where Wisconsin is ranked No. 22 in the nation as of Wednesday, and what made Torvik start it

  • What he’s seen from the Badgers this year

  • A metric that stands out to most to Torvik from the season that shows the improvement of this team from where they were at the beginning of the season to where the Badgers are now

  • The “Jekyll and Hyde” of this Wisconsin team, which can lead to volatility

  • Could how they far they go in the Big Ten Tournament affect their NCAA Tournament seeding?
