Michigan lost at Wisconsin, 68-64.   Bronson Koenig scored 16 points, 10 in a key run that turned the game around, and No. 17 Wisconsin survived a scare from Michigan on Tuesday night.  Michigan (12-7, 2-4 Big Ten) seemed to have Wisconsin (15-3, 4-1) on the ropes at one point in the second half.  Wisconsin's Ethan Happ went to the bench with his third foul early and could largely only watch as the Wolverines went on a 17-2 run that put them up 38-30.  The Wolverines even hit 3s on consecutive possessions after Wisconsin tied the game at 43.

WMU lost at EMU, 86-80.  Thomas Wilder led Western Michigan (6-11, 2-3) with 26.  WMU hosts Kent State tonight.    EMU is at Ball State.

Red Wings

Steelers Punish Brown for Live Streaming Coach

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin regrets the language he used to describe the New England Patriots in the locker room Sunday after beating Kansas City. But he's equally upset with wide receiver Antonio Brown for livestreaming Tomlin's postgame speech on social media.  Tomlin called Brown's decision to stream more than 15 minutes of Pittsburgh's locker room after a playoff victory over Kansas City "foolish" and "selfish."   The coach added the All-Pro wide receiver will be punished "swiftly" but added Brown will be available for Sunday's AFC championship game against the Patriots.
