In the biggest game of the year, Wisconsin punched its ticket to the national championship game.

The Badgers ended Kentucky's 38-game win streak with a 71-64 victory Saturday to advance to Monday's title game against Duke, ending the Wildcats' bid to become the first undefeated champion since Indiana in 1976. It will be Wisconsin's first trip to the championship game since 1941.

Frank Kaminsky led the Badgers with 20 points, 11 rebounds and a pair of blocks, while Sam Dekker chipped in 16 points with three rebounds. 

It was Dekker's 3-pointer with 1:44 left that gave his team a 63-60 lead, turning the tide in the Badgers' favor for good. They would close the game on a 15-4 run.

Kentucky was led by forward Karl-Anthony Towns, who scored 16 points with nine rebounds, while the Harrison twins were the only other players in double figures for the Wildcats - Andrew scored 13, while Aaron had 12.

The game, however, may be remembered best for a series of questionable calls made, or not made, on both sides late in the second half.

First there was a judo chop by Wildcats forward Trey Lyles, which resulted in a no-call. 

Badgers forward Nigel Hayes then sank a bucket to tie it at 60, but the ball was released after the shot clock had expired. The play was not reviewable.

Hayes and Badgers guard Bronson Koenig each scored 12 points. It was the latter who hit a long two-point shot, with his toes on the 3-point line and forward Marcus Lee in his face, to tie the game at 36.

The win means this set of Wisconsin fans, who came to the game wearing these shirts proudly, must be psychic.
