This was a bummer. Man this sucked. I mean good lord we were leading by double figures well into the second half, and yet ... it melted. Feels sometimes like these games always melt away.
NC State had an answer for Wisconsin the vast majority of the time, but Wisconsin made the long run work to its favor. The Badgers are obviously limited offensively, but they took full advantage of the officials on their home court—if you don’t do this, then you’re derelict in you duties—and then got the game to turn on a dreadful offensive foul against NC State.
