Panthers in rivalry game
Quote:
As far as rivalry games go for the UW-Milwaukee Panthers, they had that big matchup against Marquette at the Bradley Center in December.
And there was the game over in Madison just before Christmas against Wisconsin.
Now comes another showdown at UW-Green Bay on Saturday night at the Resch Center.
Which ranks as the Panthers' biggest rivalry game?
"To me, I feel that I'd rather beat Green Bay rather than Marquette or Wisconsin even if they were ranked," said UWM senior forward James Eayrs. "Green Bay, you know, they're in our conference so they're our biggest rival. We're expecting a real physical game. Getting up and down. They're a rival team, so it's always going to be a battle."
Senior guard Ricky Franklin agreed.
"They're in our conference and in our state so it's a big game," he said. "I'd call it a rivalry game. Both sides know a lot about each other and there's a lot of connections between Milwaukee guys as far as recruitment and stuff like that, so I would call it a rivalry game."
