give Wisconsin credit though. They got hot from 3 point range and yeah that kept them in the game to the point where they could have easily stole that game.

Syracuse's defense, especially the last possession won the game as much as it was Wisconsin's loss.

What did change the game was Wisconsin's bigs were in foul trouble for a good part of it. That changed the way they had to attack Syracuse's zone. I noticed that when Wisconsin's bigs were in, they were using them in the high post and running off that. They weren't able to do that as much late in the game.
