| 2nd Half - 0:00 |
| This was a defensive-oriented game for both teams, but Xavier wound up holding the edge by limiting Wisconsin to 29 percent shooting from the field and a 3-for-20 mark from beyond the arc. The final buzzer sounds after one final missed shot by the Badgers, giving the Musketeers a 60-49 win and an invite to the round of 16 against Pittsburgh or Oklahoma State. |
| 2nd Half - 1:19 |
| All Wisconsin can do now is foul, with Joe Krabbenhoft fouling out with no points on two shots. Xavier's going to have to rely on its free throw shooting, which is at 64 percent even after Raymond makes a pair. The Musketeers trailed by as much as seven today while trying to figure out the Badgers defense, but figure it out they did and it now appears that they'll be headed to the Sweet 16. |
| 2nd Half - 2:02 |
| Frease has been a big part of why the Musketeers are controlling the action in the paint, particularly in the second half. He muscles his way to the rim for a dunk, even while getting mauled on his way up. Although he misses the ensuing free throw, he still has seven points, most on tough baskets while getting pushed around under the rim. Xavier's advantage stands at seven. |
| 2nd Half - 4:16 |
| Bohannon made 4-of-8 threes for 16 points in an overtime win over Florida State on Friday, including two big 3-pointers during the final 2:28 of regulation and another one on the first possession of the extra period. Today's, he's only 1-for-5 from long range after his latest miss. His lack of the outside shooting touch is made all the starker when Raymond shows him how it's done on the other end by draining a 3-pointer. Wisconsin falls behind by eight. |
| 2nd Half - 6:05 |
| The Musketeers are winning the battle in the paint, with Kenny Frease the latest to take advantage of mismatches inside when he brushes away a foul from Hughes to go up for a layup. That's a three-point lead for Xavier and foul number four for Hughes. Follow that up with a great inside pass to McLean streaking to the basket for a dunk, and the lead grows to 44-39. |
