NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/09/2012 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jordan Taylor shot 5-of-9 from three- point range and dropped a game-high 27 points as No. 21 Wisconsin held off Minnesota, 68-61, in overtime at Williams Arena on Thursday.

Ryan Evans contributed the first double-double of his collegiate career with 17 points and 11 boards for the Badgers (19-6, 8-4 Big Ten), who won their fifth Big Ten road game in six tries.

Andre Hollins paced Minnesota's scoring attack, dropping 20 points with six rebounds and a block for the Golden Gophers (17-8, 5-7). Rodney Williams added 16 points, two blocks and a steal.

Wisconsin dominated overtime on the back of excellent free throw shooting. They made just one field goal, a jumper by Evans with 3:08 to play, but knocked down 15 freebies in 17 opportunities to hold off a late barrage of threes by the Minnesota offense.

Minnesota had trailed since Julian Welch banked home a trey to give the Golden Gophers a 16-14 lead with 9:31 to go in the first half, but a pair of Hollins free throws with 1:02 remaining in the game tied it at 51-51. The teams traded misses in the final minute, and Hollins' baseline jumper struck iron at the buzzer to send the game to overtime.

The Badgers shot 63.6 percent (7-11) from behind the arc in the first half, paced by Taylor, who netted four in as many tries. Wisconsin led 32-24 at the break.
