Wisconsin vs. Ohio State: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Wednesday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers against Ohio State in the Big Ten Tournament on Wednesday night:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Ohio State Buckeyes on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers are entering the Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament with urgency, as they will need to string together back-to-back wins for the first time since early January to keep themselves in the NCAA Tournament picture. Luckily, the Buckeyes have struggled tremendously in the Big Ten this year including losing to Wisconsin at home in February.

The Badgers will likely look to their frontcourt of Steven Crowl and Tyler Wahl, who scored 42 of Wisconsin’s 71 points against Minnesota. It was great to see both of Wisconsin’s bigs on the same page, and, hopefully, they can continue to carry that momentum into the postseason.

It should be an exciting game to watch as the Badgers will battle not only to move on in the Big Ten Tournament but for their NCAA Tournament hopes.

Wisconsin vs. Iowa: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Wednesday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers against the Iowa Hawkeyes on Wednesday night:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Iowa Hawkeyes on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

After a tough loss against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights on Saturday, the Badgers hope to get back on track with a win over the Hawkeyes at the Kohl Center. Wisconsin got the best of Iowa in their first matchup in December; however, the Hawkeyes were missing their leading scorer forward Kris Murray.

A key matchup to watch in this game will be between Wisconsin forward Tyler Wahl and Murray. Wahl has struggled since his return from an ankle injury in mid-January, but his defense will be needed to slow down Iowa’s leading scorer and its fast-paced offense.

It should be a great game to watch as the Badgers will attempt to sweep the season series and continue to work their way into the NCAA Tournament picture.

Wisconsin vs. Nebraska: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Saturday

How to watch Wisconsin basketball on the road against the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturday:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturday afternoon, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers will hope to finish off their two-game road trip undefeated against the Cornhuskers, after a thrilling 79-74 overtime victory over the Penn State Nittany Lions on Wednesday. The Badgers were led by a phenomenal 19-point shooting performance from point guard Chucky Hepburn.

In addition to the great game from Hepburn, forward Tyler Wahl had his first big performance since his return from injury. Wahl’s continued presence in the point will be crucial for Wisconsin moving forward since his playmaking helps to open up Hepburn and talented freshman guard Connor Essegian on the outside.

It should be a great game to watch as the Badgers try to work their way back up the Big Ten standing and potentially to an NCAA Tournament birth.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

Wisconsin vs. Penn State: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Wednesday

How to watch Wisconsin basketball against the Penn State Nittany Lions on Wednesday night:

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.

Wisconsin vs. Northwestern: Stream, Injury Report and Broadcast Info for Sunday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers against the Northwestern Wildcats on Sunday night:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Northwestern Wildcats on Sunday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers were able to snap their three-game losing skid with a close victory over the Ohio State Buckeyes, and they will be hoping to make it two straight with a win over Northwestern. The Wildcats were able to edge out the Badgers for the victory in their first matchup a few weeks ago.

In addition to getting revenge, a victory over Northwestern gives Wisconsin a chance to draw level with them in the standings and move only one game behind fourth place in the Big Ten. Although the Badgers have struggled, losing six of nine games since the start of 2023, they still have an opportunity to move out of the bottom of the Big Ten and can potentially make a run for the NCAA Tournament in this final month of the regular season.

It should be an exciting game to watch as the Badgers will attempt to exact their revenge against the Wildcats and gain traction moving into February.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

Wisconsin vs. Maryland: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Wednesday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers in their rematch against the Maryland Terrapins on Wednesday night:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Maryland Terrapins on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers will hope to get back in the win column, after getting surprised in their 66-63 road loss to Northwestern on Monday. Wisconsin was without starting guard Max Klesmit against the Wildcats, and they will likely also be without him again against the Terrapins.

Hopefully, Wisconsin guard Jordan Davis can continue to step into Klesmit’s role after finishing with a career-high 15 points as well as six rebounds, a steal and a block against Northwestern. He will be needed to help defend against the talented Terrapins backcourt.

It should be a great game to watch as the Badgers will look to end their short road trip with a victory.

Wisconsin vs. Northwestern: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Monday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers in their rescheduled matchup against the Northwestern Wildcats:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Northwestern Wildcats on Monday evening, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

Since their initial matchup on Saturday was postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak within the Northwestern program, the Badgers will play two road games in three days because they will be heading to Maryland for a game on Wednesday. Although this scheduling isn’t ideal, it will allow Wisconsin to stay on track with its Big Ten schedule and potentially keep pace with Michigan and Rutgers near the top of the Conference.

Hopefully, forward Tyler Wahl can continue to progress in his second game back from an ankle injury and take some of the pressure off of Steven Crowl in the post. Over the last few weeks, Crowl has stepped up for the Badgers becoming the team’s leading scorer, but Wahl’s presence in the post will provide another option for Wisconsin to play inside-out.

It should be an exciting game as Wisconsin hopes to start off its short road trip the right way with a victory over the Wildcats.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: Jan. 23, 2023

Wisconsin vs. Penn State: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Tuesday

How to watch the Wisconsin Badgers at home against the Penn State Nittany Lions on Tuesday night:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Penn State Nittany Lions on Saturday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers will be heading back home to the Kohl Center to try to rebound after losing their last three games to Illinois, Michigan State and Indiana. They will hopefully be able to get more from starters Chucky Hepburn and Steven Crowl, who both finished with under 10 points in their last game against Indiana.

In addition, the teams will need to correct their shooting problems, including from the free throw line, that have emerged these last few games. Wisconsin will need Hepburn and Crowl to also be playmakers to help create space, which will also hopefully create better shots.

It should be an exciting game to watch, as the Badgers will try to get back in the win column before heading on road to face Northwestern.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

Wisconsin vs. Minnesota: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Tuesday

How to watch Wisconsin basketball in a border battle against the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Tuesday:

The Wisconsin Badgers play the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Tuesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Badgers and Golden Gophers will face off in a border battle, in what will be Wisconsin’s first Big Ten game in nearly three weeks. It will be interesting to see if the Badgers were able to knock off the rust in their last victory over Western Michigan since that was their first game in over two weeks due to a cancellation.

Hopefully, forward Steven Crowl can keep up his outstanding play in this border battle, as he has been Wisconsin’s leading scorer over the last two games. Crowl’s performance in the second half against Western Michigan also proved to be the difference in their 76-66 victory.

It should be an exciting game to watch as the Badgers jump back into their Big Ten schedule with a border clash against the Minnesota Golden Gophers.
