In one of their ugliest games of the season, the No. 12 Wisconsin Badgers edged past the Minnesota Golden Gophers 74-67, getting by with a last-minute push to sweep the Border Battle season series.
Wisconsin had a number of glaring issues on Wednesday night, shooting poorly from three yet again, while struggling to get much offense, but a strong defensive performance and some great play from stars led the way in the win.
With the win, Wisconsin improves to 23-7 on the season and 13-6 in conference play, jumping back to No. 4 in the Big Ten behind Michigan State, Michigan, and Maryland.
