HALFTIME: No.11 Wisconsin 31, Michigan 30. Badgers shoot 46.7 percent, their highest 1st-half shooting since Jan.3 at Indiana (51.6)

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 2/17/2017 12:48:08 AM
PPP: #Badgers 1.00, Michigan 1.00. UW did a good job on Walton, whose only basket in six attempts was a contested 3-pointer.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 2/17/2017 12:48:12 AM
It is halftime and the #Badgers are up 31-30. Ethan Happ has 18 points, 3 boards, 4 assists and probably stole your girl.

WISCONSIN FIRST HALF SCORING: Happ 18, Iverson 8, Trice 3, Hayes 2. UW 14-for-30 from the floor, 1-for-7 from 3, 2-for-2 from FT line

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 2/17/2017 12:49:14 AM
It's a 1️⃣-point game here at the half.

???????? @moritz_weasley is leading the way for U-M with 1️⃣2️⃣ points.

#Badgers Happ played 15 minutes: Has 18 points (8-9), four assists, three rebounds and a steal. Not a bad game.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 2/17/2017 12:49:48 AM
Khalil Iverson has been invaluable off the bench, scoring 8 points (inside of 10 inches) and grabbing 2 boards while playing good defense.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 12:51:07 AM
Moe Wagner leading the way for Michigan with 12 points while Derrick Walton has struggled shooting the ball (1-for-6).

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 12:52:15 AM
D'Mitrik Trice, in his first career start, has shot poorly BUT has 3 boards, 4 assists and only 1 turnover. Feeding Happ well too.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 12:54:01 AM
Points in the paint: Happ 16, Iverson 8, Michigan 10. (Stats didn't credit Happ with PIP on one of his FGs, but I am.)

by Jim Polzin via twitter 2/17/2017 12:54:11 AM
Happ has two six-point runs for #Badgers . First in 53 seconds, second in 67 seconds.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 2/17/2017 12:54:47 AM
#Badgers Happ limited to 6-17 shooting and 17 points in last two games (hard double teams). Has 18 points tonight.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 2/17/2017 1:00:43 AM
And no, Michigan is not using the hard double teams that Nebraska and Northwestern used.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 2/17/2017 1:01:05 AM
My uncle, a Michigan grad, says the folks at mgoblog are panicking. They are down one point. It must be exhausting cheering for UM.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:04:11 AM
Back for the second half.

Wisconsin 31, Michigan 30

Trice opens the second half with a steal and a layup. When I was a freshman I couldn't find my way to class without a map.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:06:00 AM
Showy for ????!

5-0 run for the #Badgers out of halftime! Wisconsin leads 36-30 with 18:15 left in the second half.

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 2/17/2017 1:06:28 AM
Showalter, who had been absent on offense for the first half, drills a three!

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:06:56 AM
Eat Ethan Eat.

20 points, 3 reb, 5 assists

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 2/17/2017 1:07:16 AM
Ethan Happ is currently dining at an all-you-can-eat buffet in the paint. #FeedEthan

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:08:16 AM
Happ picks up his first foul at 17:01. Him staying on the floor has been critical.

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 2/17/2017 1:08:17 AM
H2: We're back! @theprophet_5 puts up Michigan's first points of the half. Wisconsin leads 38-34 with 17:02 to play.

Derrick Walton should probably sue his teammates for negligence after not calling out the Happ screen that resulted in him flat on the floor

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:10:33 AM
Nigel Hayes spins and scores off the glass inside to silence the crowd!

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 2/17/2017 1:12:29 AM
H2: @Lanky_Smoove dunks one before the media timeout to bring Michigan within two, 40-38, with 14:29 to play. Let's hear you get LOUD! 〽️????

by Jim Polzin via twitter 2/17/2017 1:17:47 AM
Uh-oh. #Badgers Happ gets foul No. 2 with 12:34 left and No. 3 with 12:12 left. To the bench.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 2/17/2017 1:17:53 AM
Ethan Happ picks up his third personal foul and he'll head to the bench. Walton Jr. hits a pair of free throws.

MICH 43, WIS 42 | 12:12 2H

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 2/17/2017 1:18:05 AM
Happ has 3 fouls now...that is not ideal.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 2/17/2017 1:18:11 AM
H2: After a pair of free throws from @DerrickWalton10 , Michigan takes their first lead of the half! 45-44 with 10:55 to play.

#Badgers up 46-45 with 10:47 left. UW holds 34-16 edge in paint, but Michigan has 18-6 scoring edge from beyond the arc.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 2/17/2017 1:20:24 AM
SHOWALTER WITH THE HOOP AND THE HARM!
