The Wolverines earned the extra Big Ten point in a shootout but the Badgers rallied from 3-1 and 4-3 deficits.
The Badgers have won only two of the 11 times they've gone to overtime this season. Still, they're in a home-ice playoff position because of the results.
Gov. Tony Evers announced on Jan. 24 that Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) Secretary Cheryll Olson-Collins will be retiring, effective Feb. 3, 2025. Concurrently, Evers also announced he is appointing Wendy K. Baumann to succeed Olson-Collins as the secretary of DFI.
The Badgers men's hockey team is in the rankings for the first time since it was 1-3 in October but it still hasn't climbed out of a losing record.
Proactively looking ahead, the Fontana Joint 8 School District Board of Education on Jan. 27 approved a number of decisions for the 2025-2026 school year, setting open enrollment caps and recommended class size guidelines, and adopting the coordinated district calendar.
One of the team's most trusted defensive assistant coaches took an interview with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Badgers are preparing to play in front of the largest opposing crowd they'll see this season in a rivalry series against Minnesota.
Gracie Grzesk is the lone Wisconsin Miss Basketball finalist last year not regularly playing this season. Here's what's helping the former three-time state champion stay on top of her game.
Minnesota's top line scored five straight goals after the Badgers took a 2-0 lead. Here's how it happened in Minneapolis.
The Badgers led Minnesota 2-0 on the road. Jimmy Snuggerud's thunderbolt helped turn it into a Gophers win that prevented Wisconsin from reaching .500.
The Badgers and Minnesota went to the third period scoreless but the Gophers struck four times to complete a season sweep for the first time in 22 years.
The Badgers were shut out in Big Ten play for the first time in more than two years, with Arsenii Sergeev having to stop only three shots in the third.
The Badgers have been outscored 16-2 in the third period in their last six games, all losses that were close entering the final 20 minutes.
Crowd sizes were 4% smaller in coach Mike Hastings' second season than in his first as the Badgers had at least 10,000 ticket scans in only one game.
A Badgers forward was a first-team preseason selection by Big Ten coaches, who also predicted the final standings.
