In as close to a must win game as they come, the No. 21 Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team (16-8 overall, 10-7 B1G) took on the Northwestern Wildcats (6-14 overall, 3-13 Big Ten) Sunday night.
Almost exactly a month removed from the first time they met in January, neither team came into the game with much recent success. The Wildcats had lost 12-straight games in the conference, while the Badgers recorded a 3-5 record since.
While both teams came in with their fair share of struggles, it was the the Badgers who were able to take home a big road win.
