There was a stunner in Happy Valley tonight.
Wisconsin, ranked No. 11 in the AP Poll and No. 8 in the coaches, came into the Bryce Jordan Center 5-0 and first in the Big Ten to take on Penn State, ranked nowhere close to the top 25.
But behind 62 combined points from guards Kanye Clary (27) and Ace Baldwin (20) and Nick Kern (15), Penn State pulled it out, 87-83.
The people of social media had a lot to say about this one. Here’s some of it

It’s tough to win on the road in the Big Ten. That’s just a fact.

your basketball team sucks and so does your football team let's be honest yes they deserved it but they are still 3-4 and 9-9 overall

Penn State upsets No. 11 Wisconsin 87-83. First marquee win of the Mike Rhoades era. Nittany Lions 9-9 overall but a fairly respectable 3-4 in Big Ten play.
