Where the Wisconsin men's basketball team will spend Thanksgiving is now set in stone...this year it will be Orlando.
The Badgers have been chosen to go to the Old Spice Classic at Disney World this November. And the Badgers will not be the only big names hanging out with Mickey.
Joining th e Badgers will be last year's PAC-10 champions the Cal Bears, and Atlantic 10 champion Temple. Other notable participants include Texas A&M, Notre Dame, and Boston College. The mid-major in next years Old Spice Classic will be Manhattan.
Last year the state of Wisconsin almost brought home the invitational title when Marquette lost to Florida State in the finals. This year Wisconsin will look to finish what Marquette couldn't finish in Orlando in 2009.
This will be the fifth year in the last six that Bucky has traveled to a Thanksgiving Break tournament. Taking only 2007 off, and playiing in Maui last season, the Vriginia Islands and South Padre in years past.
