The Wisconsin men’s basketball team has another tough road test ahead against No. 8 Iowa Wednesday in Iowa City, less than a week after a crushing loss in East Lansing to then No. 8 Michigan State.
The Badgers (17-10 overall, 9-5 Big Ten) currently stand two games behind the Hawkeyes (20-6, 11-3) for second place in the Big Ten, while Iowa is just a half-game behind Indiana for the top spot.
Though Wednesday’s matchup has huge conference implications for both teams, a win for Wisconsin would boost them to a better standing for in the final NCAA tournament field.
