The Big Ten had three intriguing games on Sunday, highlighted by a showdown between the Badgers and Terps in Maryland. The other games featured Northwestern on the road against Ohio State and Indiana hosting Minnesota.

Let’s take a look at what happened.

Unfortunately for Maryland fans, the Terps couldn’t close the deal. The game was competitive throughout, but Maryland just didn’t have quite enough to slow down Johnny Davis and Tyler Wahl, who combined for 40 points. Ultimately, Wisconsin grabbed a one-point win over the Terps.

Wisconsin improved to 13-2 overall and 4-1 in Big Ten play with the win while Maryland fell to 8-7 overall and 0-4 in Big Ten play with the loss.
