Wisconsin men’s basketball: Marquette recap

On Friday night, the Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team (3-0 overall, 0-0 B1G) had their first road contest of the 2020-2021 season against in-state counterpart Marquette.

Last year the Badgers handled the Golden Eagles by 16 in Madison on a Sunday with a raucous white-out crowd in the stands.

This season, the game a shifted to Milwaukee in the Fiserv Forum, without fans in attendance due to COVID-19. As a result the atmosphere was not nearly as chaotic, but the game itself lived up to the hype. In a back and forth game, it was Marquette that exited victorious in last second fashion for the win.
