INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Next in the way of Kentucky’s perfect season: Frank the Tank and his fun-loving band of Wisconsin teammates.

Player of the Year Frank Kaminsky and the Badgers were so loose, they were giggling on the podium during their interviews Friday — answering questions about what they eat, how they slept and even what their word of the day is for the poor NCAA stenographer they discovered last month. (Answer: prestidigitation.)

The team they face Saturday in the Final Four, 38-0 Kentucky, is working at keeping the pressure off, too.

Instead of talking about being undefeated, Wildcats coach John Calipari insists everyone is 0-0 now, with two wins needed for the title.

If the Wildcats get them, they’ll be the first program since the 1975-76 Indiana team to run the table.
