Titus Ivory honored before the game. Receives a big hand from crowd.
Ben Brust with back to back 3s to open the game and it's completely silent here.

14-7 after Newbill fallaway. Not much ball movement from the Lions so far.
16-7 after Jackson drive. Badgers able to get into the lane early and often.

Slow start, but the team is starting to get going. Need to Sasa the ball inside more and not force a quick 3 attempt.

Did Graham just do something impressive?!

Nice dunk by Marshall! Woo!
Marshall jams it on Brusewitz, and makes the free throw.

Looking good right now. Very good chance we play this team again next week.
LIons on 13-2 run right now. Badgers are 2 of their last 12.
Questionable shooting foul call.

Marshall gives Lions lead back, 27-26, with elbow jumper.
Back and forth we go.
Colella with a chance to stretch 1-point lead after pulling his patented "draw contact and heave" move.
He makes two of three.
31-28 Penn State.
Shooting percentages almost even now, at around 40.
Not sure if this pace (33-32 with 14:50 left) favors either team, but it should be interesting as we head down stretch.
Brust and Newbill trade threes. 36-35.
