It was a win that was definitely needed for the Wisconsin Badgers after a terrible loss to open Big Ten Conference play.
After a dismal showing vs. Ohio State on Saturday, Wisconsin traveled to Penn State on Monday night, and after squandering a 17-point lead in the second half, held on for a 64–63 win in Happy Valley.
Forward Khalil Iverson scored a team-high 16 points along with five rebounds, while true freshman forward Nate Reuvers showed why his redshirt was burned, scoring in double figures once again with 11 points with four rebounds.
