Michigan State beat Wisconsin in basketball tonight in overtime, thus giving the Spartans wins over highly respected opponents in an extra session in both football and basketball over a 36-hour period. Wisconsin? In that same period they lost both the Rose Bowl and tonight's huge hoops game in agonizingly close fashion, with each ending when refs went to tape to determine clock ran out on Badgers (Wilson's misguided attempt to spike ball and game-tying three-pointer that was eventually waived off). Weird.
