After finishing their road trip with a 61-48 win against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the No. 21 Wisconsin Badgers will face off against the No. 3 Michigan Wolverines at the Kohl Center on Sunday afternoon. An upset of the Wolverines could set the Badgers up well for their next matchup against No. 15 Iowa on Thursday night.

The Badgers were able to regain their confidence from a dominant second half against the Cornhuskers, along with another excellent performance from true freshman Jonathan Davis off of the bench. He finished with 10 points, three rebounds, two steals, an assist and a block. His contribution off the bench will be crucial for Wisconsin to beat Michigan that has proven to be one the best teams in the country.
Although the Badgers were able to lock down in the second half against Nebraska, they will need to improve their abysmal 32.3% shooting from the field to prevent a similar result to their first matchup where Michigan dominated Wisconsin 77-54. This game is an exciting opportunity for the Badgers to flip the script in the Big Ten ahead of their final stretch of the regular season.
