Wisconsin couldn't finish off Illinois, though they were in position to do so. A heartbreaking loss at 165 and an upset at 197 hurt the Badgers. The coming weekend the Badgers will host Minnesota and Indiana. They will need to be much more focused and intense this weekend in order to hang with Minnesota.
