WKU went up 8-2 at one point after a couple of 3’s from Delano Blanton and Tavieon Hollingsworth. But
Wisconsin’s Brad Davison is getting booed out of the building every time he touches the ball. If you remember, he is the one who drew the “foul” in last year’s meeting that cost the Tops the game.
Josh Anderson quickly makes his presence felt with 5 points from a tip-in and a 3 pointer. WKU trails 24-18 with 5:56 left before the half.
The Tops spending a lot of time down low and drawing fouls on Wisconsin. Helping to keep the game close as we make it towards the half. Wisconsin leads the Tops
