Three games in a row, Ohio State has seen second-half leads dwindle as the game's end neared. Only once, however, has it lost.
Bouncing back from a two-point defeat at Purdue, the 15th-ranked Buckeyes led for all but 20 seconds of Saturday's Big Ten matchup with No. 10 Wisconsin and secured a 74-62 victory at the Kohl Center in Madison. What was as much as a 13-point second-half lead dropped to only four points with less than five minutes to go, but the Badgers couldn't even it up.
Ohio State improved to 12-4 on the season and 6-4 within the Big Ten, while Wisconsin fell to 12-4 overall and 6-3 in the conference.
