Nebraska rallies from 17-down, defeats Wisconsin 73-63 in overtime

The Nebraska Cornhuskers men’s basketball team has now twice done what the football team has yet to do once in Big Ten competition: defeat the Wisconsin Badgers in back-to-back meetings. In downing the Badgers 73-63 in overtime in front of a raucous home crowd at Pinnacle Bank Arena Saturday afternoon, the Huskers opened up a two-game win streak over UW dating back to a 74-73 victory in Madison on March 6, 2022. Previously, Nebraska in Big Ten competition only had back-to-back victories over Wisconsin in meetings on Feb. 9, 2017 and Jan. 29, 2018.
