The Wisconsin Badgers did their part in deciding the Big Ten’s top four seeds on Wednesday night. That aid was not due to a Wisconsin victory; the team surprisingly fell on the road at Oregon, which entered the matchup with a 10-17 record on the season.
The loss dropped Wisconsin to 19-9 (11-6 Big Ten). After it was neck-and-neck with several others for one of the coveted double-bye positions in the Big Ten Tournament, the loss all but eliminates the team from that race.
