Rutgers is on an 8-0 run and has opened up a 25-18 lead. Timeout, Gard with 2:33 left until halftime.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/28/2017 5:47:54 PM
So Rutgers hits a three and then gets a steal/dunk for a 25-18 lead with 2:33 left. #Badgers Gard takes time.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/28/2017 5:48:01 PM
Rutgers on an 8-0 win...

Greg Gard turns to Brevin Pritzl for a spark

by Wisconsin Basketball via twitter 1/28/2017 5:48:09 PM
Rutgers now on an 8-0 run and lead 25-18 with 2:33 left. Gard calls a timeout to try to wake up his squad.

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/28/2017 5:48:11 PM
How about that sequence?

3-ball from Mike Williams!

Steal and SLAM from ISSA THIAM!

UW needs a timeout, RU leads 25-18 #KnightAndDay

by Rutgers Basketball via twitter 1/28/2017 5:48:30 PM
Seven turnovers in 28 possessions for the #Badgers . Pritzl in.

Ten fouls on RU in the half. UW shooting 75% from the line.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:51:53 PM
Shoot to get hot, shoot to stay hot.

by Zach Heilprin via twitter 1/28/2017 5:52:03 PM
#Badgers 0 for last 11...No FGs in last 10:14.

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/28/2017 5:53:31 PM
RU not a good FT shooting team. Shooting <60% in B1G play.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:53:42 PM
HALFTIME: #RHoops leads No. 15 Wisconsin 25-20!

Shocked Pritzl didn't take that 3.

by Zach Heilprin via twitter 1/28/2017 5:54:21 PM
Halftime: Rutgers 25, #Badgers 20. UW 5 of 25 overall, 1 of 12 from 3-point range.

HALFTIME: Rutgers 25. No.15 Wisconsin 20. UW shot a brutal 20 percent (5-for-25), including 1-for-12 from 3. Turned 11 Tos into just 6 pts

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/28/2017 5:54:33 PM
Badgers haven't hit a FG in 10:36 mins.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:54:38 PM
#Badgers close half with a missed 3 -- fittingly. No FGs last 10:36. Just 1-13 from 3 and 5-25 overall. Down 5. #ugly

by Jeff Potrykus via twitter 1/28/2017 5:55:08 PM
First-Half Scoring: Ethan Happ 11, Hill 3, Brown 2, Hayes 2, Showalter 2. UW's 20 points ties its season low (vs. North Carolina)

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/28/2017 5:55:40 PM
Great job by the Defense, as the Badgers didn't make a field goal in the last 10:36 of the half! First half stats: #KnightAndDay #OneAgenda http://pbs.twimg.com/media/C3RqrDSXAAAyDbN.jpg

by Rutgers Basketball via twitter 1/28/2017 5:55:50 PM
Koenig, Brown and Hayes combine to go 0-for-12 from the field in the first half.

by Benjamin Worgull via twitter 1/28/2017 5:56:05 PM
So, that was...interesting. Feels like the Pitt tournament game in STL last year.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:56:22 PM
PPP: Rutgers 0.76, #Badgers 0.61. UW had no field goals, five points over final 10:36 (17 possessions).

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/28/2017 5:56:22 PM
UW crowd is the collective physical embodiment of uncomfortable murmuring.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:57:26 PM

RU is TERRIBLE offensively. If the Badgers start dropping shots, this one may turn quickly.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 5:58:52 PM
Happ is 3 of 5 from the field and has 11 points. Rest of team: 2 of 20, nine points. Koenig is 0 of 6 overall, 0 of 5 from 3-point range.

by Jim Polzin via twitter 1/28/2017 6:00:26 PM
The first half score sheet is a barren wasteland of zeroes. Koenig 0-6 (0-5 on 3s); Brown 0-4. Team is 1-12 from three.

by Bucky's 5th Quarter via twitter 1/28/2017 6:01:55 PM
1st half stats
Rbds: W 16, R 21
