The Wisconsin Badgers play the Penn State Nittany Lions on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
Coming off of a tough loss to Northwestern, the Badgers hope to rebound against the Nittany Lions to sweep the season series and break their tie for tenth place in the Big Ten.
Wisconsin will need a great defensive night from their backcourt against Penn State guard Jalen Pickett, who leads the teams in points, assists and rebounds. Pickett also finished with 19 points, 12 rebounds and six assists in the Nittany Lions’ 63-60 loss to the Badgers earlier this season.
Another key for a Badgers’ victory will be getting forwards Steven Crowl and Tyler Wahl back on the right track since they are two of Wisconsin’s three leading scorers so far this season. A scoring threat from the Badgers’ frontcourt will be crucial to help open up their offense and give space to their shooters.
Hopefully, Wisconsin can start right the ship against Penn State, since every game will be crucial down this final stretch of the regular season for their postseason aspirations.
