The No. 11 Wisconsin Badgers lost their third consecutive game in a 72-68 loss to the Michigan Wolverines in arguably their ugliest loss of the season on Wednesday.

With the loss, the Badgers drop to 16-7 on the season and 8-4 in conference play, while Michigan snaps a five-game losing streak, in which they lost each game by double digits.

Offensively, Wisconsin shot 46 percent from the field, but struggled once again from deep, hitting just 5/19 of their threes.

Defensively, the Badgers struggled early, allowing 37 first-half points, while allowing Michigan to get to the free throw line 25 times.
