#Badgers lead 8-6 at the first break. UW 3 of 9 out of the gate.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/18/2017 2:16:36 AM
#Badgers just 3-9 shooting against a bad defensive team. UW has 8-6 lead with 15:17 left. Michigan ball.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:16:46 AM
Fun start at the Kohl Center. #Badgers open shooting 50% from downtown, Michigan 50% FG. Brown & Koenig 3pts each.

WIS 8, MICH 6 | 15:17 1H

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:17:16 AM
#Badgers are 2-4 from 3 but just 1 of 5 inside the arc. Happ was 0-2 before exiting.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:17:46 AM
#Badgers shooting well from three to start but looking lost in amongst the trees down low. 8-6 with 15:17 left.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:17:48 AM
Greg Gard less than pleased with some of the defensive work. Wanted to pull Happ sooner than he did. Screamed at Koenig for leaving Irvin.

by Zach Heilprin via twitter 1/18/2017 2:18:33 AM
H1: Refs are reviewing @zirvin21 triple, currently list it as a two -- and its stays a two, U-M trails 8-6.

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:19:13 AM
#Badgers game back on ESPN now that SEC basketball is over. Hold on, is SEC basketball a thing?

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:19:17 AM
UW's first offensive rebound = points from Ethan Happ.

#Badgers out-scoring teams 14.2 to 7.8 this season in 2nd-chance pts

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:21:57 AM
After missing his first three shots, Happ gets the better of Mark Donnal, making a low-post bucket, drawing a foul but missing the FT

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/18/2017 2:22:01 AM
Ethan. Happ... AND-☝️❗️

Ethan unable to finish the 3-point play at the line, but #Badgers lead 10-6 with just over 13:00 to go 1H.

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:22:07 AM
H1: Always interesting to play in an arena that shares with hockey; just a little chill in the Kohl Center tonight #GoBlue

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:22:09 AM
Ethan Happ is like a bull in a china shop and gets an and one for the #Badgers to end a four minute scoring drought.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:22:39 AM
He...predictably misses his free throw.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:22:57 AM
H1: Nice cut by Robinson to the basket and get the goaltending call. Michigan trails Wisconsin 12-10 with 12: 14 left.

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:24:12 AM
#Badgers lead 14-10 with 11:58 left until halftime. Brown with 5 points, Happ with 4.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/18/2017 2:24:42 AM
Happ with a baby right hook over Wagner. The German will soon learn that that can't be defended. UW leads 14-10 at 11:58.

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/18/2017 2:24:52 AM
Every player on Michigan looks like his jersey is one size too small. That's why this game didn't start until 8. #B1Gafterdark

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:25:04 AM
H1: Wisconsin leads 14-10 at the under-12 media timeout. Irvin with 6 points to pace the Maize and Blue! #GoBlue

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:25:35 AM
#Badgers Happ was 0-3. Has scored down low last two attempts. DJ Wilson, a 6-10 JR, has given Happ issues.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:25:54 AM
Vitto Brown leading the #Badgers with 5pts, while Ethan Happ has 4pts.

AirBALL DON'T LIE, MICHIGAN!

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:29:05 AM
H1: Robinson with the triple!! ????

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:30:13 AM
Shooting a little suspect by both teams early on. Wisconsin 6 of 16 and Michigan 6 of 15. Each team with two turnovers. UW leads 14-13.

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/18/2017 2:30:41 AM
#Badgers very sloppy/ragged/ugly on offense right now.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:30:53 AM
#Badgers look disjointed early on. But thankfully Michigan has declined to hit the rim on multiple possessions.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:31:21 AM
Eat, Ethan. EAT. ????

Badgers keep feeding the big fella down low and he keeps producing. Team-high 6pts for E.

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:32:03 AM
Nigel Hayes... AND-☝️❗️ t.co

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:32:35 AM
Happ with a nice layup and then a monster block and then NIGEL HAYES WITH AN AND-1! I think they're reading this Twitter account.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:33:09 AM
H1: Irwin with a ???? to stop a Wisconsin run. Wisconsin up 19-16 with 7:35 left.

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:33:52 AM
#Badgers Illikainen hit 2-2 from 3 vs. OSU. He is 0-2 tonight and the second one was an airball. No consistency.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:34:19 AM
#Badgers lead Michigan 19-16 with 7:30 til halftime. UW 8 of 19 from the field, Michigan 7 of 18.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/18/2017 2:34:24 AM
H1: Irvin with a ???? to stop a Wisconsin run. Wisconsin leads 19-16 with 7:30 left.

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:35:02 AM
Michigan is playing defense. Don't think the #Badgers expected this.

by Tom Oates via twitter 1/18/2017 2:35:32 AM
Wisconsin shooting 42.1% FG, but just 2-for-7 from 3PT range. #Badgers D holding Michigan to 2 of its last 8 FGs.

WIS 19, MICH 16 | 7:30 1H

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:35:41 AM
H1: Refs reviewing @zirvin21 triple --- yup it is GOOD!

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:35:54 AM
Alex Illikainen shoots a three that was about as far from his intended target as most jokes @thegnc makes. Badgers up 3 with 7:30 left.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/18/2017 2:36:04 AM
Zak Irvin has 9 of Michigan's 16 points. #Badgers up, 19-16, with 7:30 left. Ugly game so far.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/18/2017 2:36:08 AM
H1: TIE GAME! @theprophet_5 with a triple and we're tied at 19!

by Michigan Men's Basketball via twitter 1/18/2017 2:37:22 AM
Back-to-back 3s from Michigan has this game tied at 19-19.
