UPDATE: Badgers maul Illini, ensure first losing season of millennium

No. 11 Wisconsin put the pieces together this season after losing two senior stars from a year ago, but Illinois hasn't been able to say the same thing.

The Badgers might not have a lineup that strikes fear into their Big Ten Conference opponents. Nevertheless, Wisconsin just keeps winning. And when the Badgers rolled past Illinois 71-57 at Assembly Hall on Wednesday, the loss assured Illinois of its first losing mark in the regular season since the 1998-99 season.
