Wisconsin vs. Penn State: 3 things we learned from Badgers' 66-60 win

Wisconsin built its first winning streak since mid-December after taking down Penn State on the road.

1. Wisconsin's defense completely controlled Penn State. It never really was a huge shock to see the Badgers defense dominate. The Nittany Lions finished 2014-15 ranked 171st in adjusted offensive efficiency per KenPom and lost their best player in DJ Newbill. That figure has actually climbed to 103.5 this season, but that still only comes in at 168th.

Penn State scored 18 points in the first half and turned the ball over nine times, only attempting 16 field goals.
