The University of Oregon trolled the University of Wisconsin on Sunday ahead of their NCAA Tournament match up in the best way possible
Sunday night in the NCAA Tournament, one of the Round of 32 games that a lot of people are looking forward to comes to us from the West Region, where the No. 8 seed Oregon Ducks will look to knock off the No. 1 seed Wisconsin Badgers.
With a game of this magnitude, you know that the trash talk will be aplenty. Well apparently that even extended to the schools themselves, although it was the Ducks that won out in the end.
First, Wisconsin sent the Ducks some of their stenographer challenging words that went viral over the weekend, poking the bear.

Next, Oregon let them know that they’re around.
.@UWMadison We're here. Just enjoying a laid back #WestCoast morning before tipoff.

.@Univ_Of_Oregon Whew. We were worried you’d stood us up on the dance floor.

AND HERE COMES THE KILL SHOT…
.@UWMadison Never! But we Ducks are busy #golfing #biking #hiking and sometimes watching Rose Bowl highlights, https://t.co/apbnzrgEV4

For those that don’t remember, Oregon and Wisconsin met up in the 2012 Rose Bowl, one of the more memorable games in recent memory. However, it wasn’t all memorable for the Badgers, who were defeated in the contest, 45-38.
Have to give it up to Oregon here in this exchange. As Wisconsin was needling, they took the polite way out, or at least tried to. But in the end, they had to reach into the holster and pull out the big gun.
