Think there's any excitement for #Badgers basketball? Student tickets sold out in exactly 5 minutes. Thanks you @UWGratefulRed !

UPDATE: UW issued a release confirming the sellout, adding that this is the 10th time in the last 13 seasons that student season tickets have sold out. There are also a number of winter break packages (four games) still available. Those games are Dec. 28 vs. Buffalo, Dec. 31 vs. Penn State, Jan. 7 vs. Purdue and Jan. 15 vs. Nebraska. This package is available until Sept. 25. A sale of single-game student tickets for the four winter break games will start on Sept. 29.

Nice work indeed, Grateful Red. Winter break packages are still on sale for those still wanting a taste of Wisconsin basketball, and we can't forget about hockey, either: men's tickets are on sale right here, while women's tickets can be purchased as part of the Red Card, which grants students admission to soccer, volleyball, women’s basketball, women’s hockey, wrestling and softball games for $25.

Wisconsin's men's basketball season begins Nov. 14 vs. Northern Kentucky at the Kohl Center. The annual Red/White scrimmage will be held Oct. 26, while an exhibition vs. UW-Parkside will be played Nov. 5. B5Q's Phil Mitten recently compiled his list of the best 10 games of the season, in case you need any more ammunition for getting truly pumped for this season.
