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.

The Badgers are coming off a tough shooting night against No. 18 Illinois and will need a better game from guards Brad Davison and Jonathan Davis, who went a combined 1-11 from deep against the Fighting Illini.

Penn State has struggled in its road Big Ten schedule so far this season, so this will be a great matchup for Wisconsin to figure out its shooting woes ahead of their rematch against Michigan State.

A look at the Big Ten basketball assists leaders in 2020-2021

This article will look at the Big Ten Conference season leaders in assists, who are some of the best players in not only the Big Ten this…

As the 2020-21 men’s basketball season is nearing its end, we begin to look back at the Big Ten Conference and the great individual performances from this season.

Despite a senior season that had its fair share of difficulties, Wisconsin guard D’Mitrik Trice was able to make the top 10 among very impressive players such as Illinois guard Ayo Dosunmu, Michigan guard Mike Smith and Iowa guard Jodan Bohannon. These players have been the most dominant at their position this season, and it is no surprise to see them leading the Big Ten in such an important category that shows their ability to create plays for their team in addition to their electric scoring.

It will be interesting to see how the Badgers will attempt to replace the playmaking ability of D’Mtrik Trice at the point guard position going into next year, especially with the entrance of backup point guard Trevor Anderson into the transfer portal.

Below are the top 10 leaders in assists from the Big Ten Conference 2020-21 season. Players from Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn State, Northwestern, Michigan, Ohio State and Minnesota have all made the list.

After winning their opening game of the Big Ten Tournament against the Penn State Nittany Lions, the Wisconsin Badgers will advance to day three of the tournament to face the No. 5 Iowa Hawkeyes for the third time this season.

The Badgers were finally able to get it going from the 3-point line against the Nittany Lions converting over 52% of their shots from deep. Forward Aleem Ford led this outstanding shooting performance with 17 points, with 15 of them coming from the 3-point line. Ford finished the night shooting 5-6 from deep and 6-7 overall.

Despite the phenomenal play of Wisconsin throughout most of the game that allowed them to build an 18-point lead in the second half, the Badgers nearly blew yet another lead late in the game by letting Penn State close within one. Wisconsin will need to be better defensively against the talented offense of Iowa on Friday night.

The Badgers will be playing the Hawkeyes for not only a chance of redemption after their heartbreaking loss on Sunday but for a spot in the Big Ten Tournament Semi-Final against the winner of the Rutgers and Illinois matchup.

After a hard-fought victory in the opening round of the Big Ten Tournament over Nebraska 72-66, the Penn State Nittany Lions will face the Wisconsin Badgers in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday night. The winner of this game will move to day three of the tournament, where they will match up against the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Wisconsin will look towards senior forward Micah Potter to provide the spark for the Badgers offense, after tying his season-high in scoring against the Hawkeyes on Sunday. Potter finished with an outstanding performance of 23 points off of the bench against Iowa, and he has been playing his best basketball of the season since he has started to come off the bench. His height will also provide a key mismatch against the Nittany Lions, who are one of the smaller teams in the Big Ten.

Although Penn State and Wisconsin split their regular-season series, the Badgers were able to dominate the Nittany Lions in their last matchup. Nonetheless, it should be another great game to watch as action in the Big Ten Tournament is starting to heat up.

After another week of split results against Penn State and Illinois, the Wisconsin Badgers continued to fall to No. 21 in the latest Ferris Mowers Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Although the Badgers looked dominant in their game against the Penn State Nittany Lions, Wisconsin could not find any answers for the scoring of Kofi Cockburn and Ayo Dosumnu against the Fighting Illini losing by 15 points. It will be important for Wisconsin to play well on Thursday against Nebraska, before playing No. 3 Michigan at the Kohl Center on Feb. 14.

The Big Ten stated its dominance in the latest Ferris Mowers Coaches Poll with three teams included in the top 10. Michigan, Ohio State and Illinois have all moved up this week to No. 3, No. 5 and No. 10, while Iowa has continued their plummet from the top 10 to No. 16. Purdue also makes an appearance in the latest poll at No. 25, because of their upset victory against Minnesota last week.

The top 10 for this week includes Gonzaga (1), Baylor (2), Michigan (3), Villanova (4), Ohio State (5), Illinois (6), Houston (7), Texas Tech (8), Virginia (9) and Missouri (10).

Wisconsin will face the Nebraska Cornhuskers(4-9) next in Lincoln, Neb. on Thursday at 4:00 p.m. CST.

Three of the Wisconsin starting five shot an abysmal combined 29.6% from the field in their last game against the Nittany Lions, and two of those three were Wisconsin’s leading scorers this season in Micah Potter and D’Mitrik Trice. Head coach Greg Gard will need to see improvements from them for the Badgers to have a chance against Penn State, who continues to get better every game.

Penn State has continued to build momentum after their close loss to No. 7 Ohio State and convincing victory against Wisconsin last week, and the Badgers will need to play drastically better at the Kohl Center to avoid getting swept by the Nittany Lions in the season series.

Although the Wisconsin Badgers played well against the Maryland Terrapins on Wednesday, their upset loss to the Penn State Nittany Lions on Saturday night caused Wisconsin to fall all the way down to No. 20 in the latest Ferris Mowers Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY.

In a week where Wisconsin was expected to go 2-0, the Badgers nearly allowed a comeback from Maryland and disappeared in the second half against Penn State to lose by 10 points. Although the Nittany Lions are a team on the rise, it is still unacceptable for Wisconsin to get dominated by a team that is 3-6 in the Big Ten.

The Big Ten and the poll as a whole have shifted significantly this week. After a tough last few games, Minnesota has dropped out of the Top 25, while Illinois and Ohio State both moved up to No. 13 and No. 9. Michigan has remained steady at No. 4, while Iowa dropped one spot to No. 8.

The updated top 10 is Gonzaga (1), Baylor (2), Villanova (3), Michigan (4), Houston (5), Texas (6), Alabama (7), Iowa (8), Ohio State (9), Tennessee (10).

Wisconsin will get a rematch against the underrated Penn State Nittany Lions at the Kohl Center on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. CST.

On Saturday afternoon, the No. 14 Wisconsin Badgers will face off against the Penn State Nittany Lions in University Park, Pa. in the first game of their back-to-back series. This game was rescheduled from Jan. 3 because of an outbreak of COVID-19 on the Nittany Lions.

After his best game of the season where he scored 23 points and had 12 rebounds, the Badgers will look towards forward Micah Potter to ignite the Wisconsin offense against an underrated and undersized Penn State team. Potter’s height will give him an advantage on the interior against the Nittany Lions, whose tallest player is only 6-foot-9.

Although the Nittany Lions have not had the best results since their return from play going 2-3, they have played a lot of close games including nearly upsetting No. 13 Ohio State on Wednesday. Penn State could be an unexpectedly difficult opponent for the Badgers, given their steady improvement since returning from a COVID-19 shutdown of team activities.

The Wisconsin Badgers will be playing a greatly improved Penn State Nittany Lions and will need to exploit their size advantage to put away a possible trap game. It should be another exceptional Big Ten matchup to watch.
