Men’s basketball: Badgers fall 69–74 to in-state rival Marquette in OT

The 125th chapter of the I-94 rivalry took place this Saturday, this time in the brand-new Fiserv Forum that is Home to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The University of Wisconsin men’s basketball team traveled just 77 miles down the interstate to take on the Marquette Golden Eagles. The Badgers are currently ranked No. 12 in the nation but they fell short with a score of 69–74 to the Golden Eagles, giving them their 58th win in the series. Though Wisconsin still leads the series 67–58.

There was no breathing room in this back and forth battle as no team led by no more than six points at any point.
