After faltering down the stretch against the Illinois Fighting Illini on Wednesday, the Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team (9-6 overall, 2-2 B1G) was back in action Saturday against the Penn State Nittany Lions (12-3 overall, 2-2 B1G).
The Nittany Lions entered the game a perfect 9-0 at home this season in large part because of the stellar play of Lamar Stevens and Myreon Jones. During the Saturday matinee, Wisconsin was able to stifle Jones and the Penn State offense to the tune of a season low 49 points on their way to a nine-point victory.
