Wisconsin the next tricky test for Hilltoppers

The Hilltoppers will venture in the Kohl Center in Madison, Wis., for a matchup with a Wisconsin program that went to back-to-back Final Fours in 2014 and ‘15. Tipoff between WKU and the Badgers is set for 7 p.m. on Fox Sports 1.

The Toppers (6-3) will be trying to send Wisconsin (4-7) to a fourth home loss already this season. The Badgers have dropped games in Madison to then-No. 15 Xavier, Ohio State and Marquette, which won 82-63 at Wisconsin on Saturday.

Home struggles have been a break from the norm for Wisconsin, which posted a 274-41 record on its court from the time the Kohl Center opened in 1997 through last season.
