Well, not exactly, but it is an interesting story.
Florida International University visited Wisconsin's Kohl Center for a game Saturday against the Badgers, but travel and weather problems caused the team to arrive around 6AM Saturday morning, with only a couple hours to rest before the game.
But the team's luggage and equipment never made it, so the FIU Golden Panthers had to play the game against Wisconsin using some makeshift supplies.
First, the Badgers dug out a whole supply of old black practice jerseys, and the FIU players were grateful to have something to use.
Then the Badgers' rushed out and purchased some extra shoes, and the game was on.
In the game, the Golden Panthers stayed fairly close for the first half, then fell well behind in the 2nd half, losing 79-63.
By the way, BU has something to be thankful about, it's home crowds.
Here is article about Texas A&M.
They are ranked inside the Top 10 in the nation, they are 6-0 and playing exciting ball, and they still have trouble drawing even 5,000 for home games.
