Robb Vogel is the Sports Director for NBC 15 Madison. He’s covered the Wisconsin Badgers during every step of their amazing run to tonight’s championship game. Vogel (who can follow on Twitter @RobbVogel, the two Bs in his name stand for Badger basketball) will be courtside for tonight’s epic showdown between the Wisconsin Badgers and Duke Blue Devils.
Or pure good vs genuine evil as I put it.
Vogel was gracious enough to join us for an engaging and detailed podcast. We covered numerous topics in detail including the analogy between this year’s Badgers and the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men’s Hockey Team.
Vogel tells us a story about what Herb Brooks told his famous “Miracle on Ice” team right before the final versus Finland. Everyone thinks the legendary upset over the mighty Soviet Union was the gold medal game; it wasn’t. Hear Vogel’s story, as well as the rest of podcast. It’s exceptional; listen to the whole file. It’s all things Badgers, and it will get you ready for the Badgers to hopefully take down Duke and win the title tonight.
