What Could've Been | Current Sports | WKAR

Wisconsin outscored Michigan State 11-0 in an overtime thriller on Sunday for an 80-69 victory in the Big Ten Tournament championship game.

The Spartans miss an opportunity to win the Big Ten Tournament for back to back years and now set their eyes toward the NCAA Tournament,  where they earned an NCAA bid for the 18th straight year and was named a No. 7 seed in the East Region.

WKAR's Al Martin reports from Chicago on "what could've been" for the team, who let the Badgers steal one from them in the clutch.
