Ohio State suffered its second loss of the past week Thursday, as Wisconsin evened the season series against the Buckeyes in a 78-68 Badger win.

The Buckeyes couldn’t make it a regular-season sweep of the Badgers, as they avenged an 18-point loss to Ohio State in the first meeting between the two teams just over a month ago at the Schottenstein Center. On Thursday at the Kohl Center, Wisconsin notched its sixth straight win since that loss to Ohio State with a 78-68 victory.Ohio State was a step behind the Badgers from jump, and Wisconsin had no trouble taking advantage of the slow start from the Buckeye offense.

Wisconsin went up by a game-high 16 points in the opening minutes of the second half, but Ohio State countered with a stretch of four straight unanswered layups to quickly cut the advantage to eight points. But Wisconsin seemed to have an answer to quell every Buckeye run, and it was a pair of back-to-back and-ones by Brad Davison and Wahl that extended the lead once again for the Badgers as the game reached its final stages. Both Wahl and Davison finished with more 20-point nights for Wisconsin.

Can someone tell me, please, why in the hell Justin Ahrens is on the floor?

Honestly, Wisconsin is not good. How do you lose to this team after destroying them earlier in the year?

Turned on Battlebots mid way through the second. They had no chance. Ohio State basketball has turned to crap.

Ohio State actually outshot Wisconsin from the field, but the Badgers were much, much better from three-point range and the free-throw line.

It’s time to take a good long look at Holtmann..he wins the games he’s supposed to at home but any slight challenge on the road or big game they never show up
