High expectations won't faze Badgers

Despite preseason high expectations, The Wisconsin Badgers basketball team said are as focused as ever at their annual local media day Tuesday afternoon.

The Badgers were picked by the Big Ten at their annual basketball media days to win the conference in 2014-15. Coach Bo Ryan said the extra attention has not made things different.

\"I don't see our guys talking any differently or practicing any differently,\" Ryan said.

\"We've got a good mindset on this team,\" said junior guard Sam Dekker. \"We know what we expect of ourselves and we're no strangers to high expectations. We have a great fan base that expects us to do well and we expect the same.\"
