+ | |||
+ | It was Tucker' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Tucker, a fifth-year senior who played against Marquette before taking a medical redshirt in 2003-04, said he wanted to stay aggressive instead of trying to hold the ball and run out the clock. "I was attacking the basket and was able to find some openings and finish," | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Badgers then fouled | ||
+ | |||
+ | McNeal made a layup with 51 seconds left, but Michael Flowers of the Badgers hit two free throws. James hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to make it 70-66. The stakes were bigger than usual in what has become a heated annual rivalry, with both teams being ranked for only the third time in 112 meetings. But the result was familiar. With the loss, Marquette coach [[Tom Crean]] dropped to 2-6 against Wisconsin, which leads the all-time series 62-51. | ||
+ | |||
+ | "If it wasn't such a big deal, it wouldn' | ||
+ | |||
+ | " | ||
+ | |||
+ | James found his shooting touch in the second half and finished with 19 points to lead the Golden Eagles. "I didn't have a lot of easy shots," | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ryan praised Flowers but said he had plenty of help. "If you don't have that kind of effort, you're not going to stop a team like Marquette," | ||
+ | |||
+ | "They made it tough for us to make shots." | ||
+ | |||
+ | Marquette rallied within six, but Tucker answered with a driving dunk to put Wisconsin ahead 43-35 with 11:26 remaining. Marquette rallied within seven points on a layup and free throw by James with 9:26 remaining, but Tucker answered with a dunk and Marcus Landry came up with blocks on consecutive possessions for the Badgers. Landry had 11 points and career-high four blocks. "I guess the adrenaline was just flowing," | ||
+ | |||
+ | "I try to do this every game. I don't know. I am just in the game, and I am in there to help my team do what it takes." | ||
+ | |||
+ | Both ended up shooting 18 free throws in the game, but Marquette was hurt when [[Ousmane Barro]] was called for his fourth foul after throwing an elbow on a rebound attempt only 2:14 into the second half, and McNeal earned his fourth foul at the 12:59 mark. | ||
