MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin wraps up its early-season Big Ten swing with a home game against Rutgers on Monday. The Badgers are 37-11 (.771) at home under head coach Greg Gard, including 18-9 in Big Ten play.

Up next, Wisconsin will travel down I-94 for its annual rivalry game against Marquette on Saturday. The road team has won six of the last eight games in this series.

1. RESUME BUILDING: The Badgers are currently No. 6 in the NCAA's NET rankings and already have 5 wins over major conference teams, tops the nation.

2. HAPP STANDS ALONE: Averaging 17.4 points, 11.6 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game, Happ is the nation's only player averaging at least 17.0 ppg, 10.0 rpg and 5.0 apg. Over the last 20 years, no player in the nation has reached those marks for a full season

3. TRICE IS NICE: After missing the final 23 games last season with a foot injury, D'Mitrik Trice is off to a sizzling start, leading the Big Ten with a 58.3% 3FG pct. and ranking 3rd with 3.5 3FGs per game. The sophomore guard entered the season with a career high of 16 points, but has already topped that in 5 of the first 8 games this season.

4. BIG TEN BEASTS: Since 2001-02 when Bo Ryan and Greg Gard got to Madison, Wisconsin leads the Big Ten winning 69.2% of their conference games, going 204-91 over that 17-year span.

5. LOCKED IN FROM LONG RANGE: Wisconsin leads the Big Ten and ranks 13th nationally shooting 42.1% from 3-point range. That figure is up from 33.5% 3FGs a year ago. Defensively, UW is allowing opponents to shoot just 28.5% from long range.
