After back to back games in Milwaukee, the Badgers head home for a home game before getting back on the road.
Nicholls State visits the Kohl Center on December 13 with a 2 p.m. tip-off.
School: Nicholls State Colonels
Location: Thibodaux, Louisiana
Conference: Southland
Undergrad Enrollment: 7.093
2013-14 record: (14-15, 10-8 Southland)
Top returning players: Sam McBeath (7.4 pts, 3.9 rebounds); Shane Rillieux (6 pts, 2.6 assists); Amin Torres (4.7 pts, 0.9 assists).
Who’d win in a mascot fight?:I’d like to think the Badger would maul the colonel when he wasn’t looking.
One interesting major:Petroleum Engineering Technology and Safety Management
One fact to help you win your local trivia night: Once part of the historic Acadia Plantation, locals consider Nicholls State “Our Harvard on the Bayou.”
Prediction: The Southland is usually a top heavy conference, and I see Nicholls State finishing somewhere in the middle. This won’t be much of a challenge. Badgers by 20.
