With the Big Ten being considered one of the deepest conferences in the country, Wisconsin&#8217;s winning overall record helped propel them in to the national tournament.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not to say things won&#8217;t be a challenge, because they certainly will.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin will host in-state rival Marquette, getting a matchup with the in-state rivals that didn&#8217;t happen in the regular season. The Badgers and Golden Eagles will meet in Madison, Wisconsin on Friday, Nov. 11 at 7 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The two teams have met three previous times, holding a 1-1-1 record against each other in NCAA tournament history.
