How to watch Washington vs Wisconsin today
After a tough loss on the road to the Iowa Hawkeyes, the Washington Huskies' road trip will only get tougher as coach Danny Sprinkle's team heads to Wisconsin to take on the Badgers.
The Badgers, who are ranked No. 9 in KenPom and 13-2 at home this season, 21-6 overall, and have been a force to be reckoned with, even coming off a loss to Oregon. Coach Greg Gard's team has been led by John Tonje, who is averaging a Big Ten-leading 19.7 points per game this season.
Sprinkle was pleased with his team's effort in its last game against Iowa, namely forward Great Osobor, who recorded his eighth double-double of the year with 15 points and 11 rebounds in the loss.
"I was proud of our guys, I thought we got off to a really good start but we played a desperate team too," Sprinkle said. "Our guys came in and they didn't have a hangover from last game [against Rutgers]. We had great energy, we had good talk in the huddles, and then we even responded during the game a lot. The crowd got going when they hit some threes but we responded and it just avalanched in the second half, [Iowa] made some hustle plays and I've got to give them credit. They got all the 50/50 balls and they made us pay."
In order to pull off a win against the Badgers and keep their season alive, the Huskies will need to bring similar energy on the road.

Chicago Cubs miscues scrap a defensive gem in 4-3 extra-innings walk-off loss — and Craig Counsell gets ejected again
PHILADELPHIA — Matthew Boyd kept coming back to the error. Two innings earlier, the Chicago Cubs' lefty had caught Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner leaning the wrong way at first base to end the third for his National League-leading fifth pickoff of the season. Boyd was primed to repeat it with rookie Otto Kemp in the fifth inning, but he wildly misfired and his pickoff throw got past first baseman Michael Busch to allow Kemp to advance from first to third. Kemp scored on the next pitch as Boyd left a slider over the plate to Weston Wilson, whose single put the Phillies ahead. The Cubs came back to tie it in the eighth on Ian Happ's solo home run and took the lead in the top of the 11th. But the Phillies answered with two in the bottom half as Brandon Marsh's bases-loaded single against Daniel Palencia handed the Cubs a 4-3 walk-off loss Monday at Citizens Bank Park. 'The part that sticks out to me is the error, that's a difference in that game, that inning, that run, plays out differently, frankly if I pick that guy off, and more importantly, just make a good throw,' Boyd said. 'Even if he's not out, the inning plays out differently.' That the Cubs were even in the game late is a testament to their defense helping the pitching staff navigate 16 hits. The offense managed just five, two of which were solo home runs, on a night Phillies ace Zack Wheeler tallied his 1,000th career strikeout and held them to one run in six innings. Kyle Tucker's home run was the first Wheeler surrendered in the first inning this year (13 starts). 'Our defense is super important,' manager Craig Counsell said. 'You see tonight we had two strikeouts. That means the ball is going to be in play a lot, and so we've got to play good defense. That's a strength of this team. We did it tonight, I think we'll continue to do it, and it's going to continue to be very important.' The Cubs (40-26) turned three double plays and recorded two outfield assists on throws to second base by Tucker and Happ in the second and eighth innings, respectively. For a second consecutive day, Counsell watched the end of the game from the visiting manager's office following an ejection, this time getting tossed in the bottom of the ninth inning. Counsell explained postgame he became upset when home plate umpire Stu Scheurwater didn't deny Phillies' Kemp was outside the baseline and interfered with catcher Carson Kelly's throw to first base on a chopper in front of the plate. However, Scheurwater told Counsell he deemed Kemp's actions didn't affect the play because Busch caught the ball. Counsell disagreed and adamantly believed Kemp impacted the sequence, adding, 'it's a situation where if Michael doesn't catch the ball they call him out.' Fortunately for the Cubs, it didn't come back to cost them the game that inning with Brad Keller and Drew Pomeranz getting the next three outs without a runner advancing past first base. 'He cares about this group and he cares about the team, and when he goes out there, it's to help the players to protect that guy,' Happ said of Counsell. 'And he knows the rules, he knows the rules really well and I think if there's one thing that's going to frustrate him, it's going to be the rules.'

A trade proposal that brings tight end Mark Andrews to the D.C. would continue the Washington Commanders' "all-in" approach to this offseason.
A trade proposal that brings tight end Mark Andrews to the D.C. would continue the Washington Commanders' "all-in" approach to this offseason. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Washington Commanders have already made a point that they are targeting proven offensive talent to build around breakout star Jayden Daniels to get as close as possible to a "win-now" window. Advertisement Acquiring All-Pros in left tackle Laremy Tunsil and receiver Deebo Samuel sures up gaps in crucial positions, but there remains one question mark that could make Washington's offense one of the best in the league: a tight end. Zach Ertz is a solid contributor, but he is going to turn 35 this season and may not be looked at as a long-term answer within the offense. Writer James Dudko of believes the Commanders should pursue a trade with the Baltimore Ravens to land a star tight end in Mark Andrews. Andrews, a former 1st Team All-Pro selection, could pair with Samuel and Terry McLaurin to create a lethal pass game that Daniels could easily thrive in. Advertisement "[Andrews would] join a depth chart already brimming with numbers, but there's still room for a clutch chain-mover and prolific playmaker in the red zone," Dudko said. The Ravens may already have a replacement waiting in the wings in young tight end Isaiah Likely, so with Andrews on an expiring contract, Baltimore could move on from their seven-year vet at the right price. In this deal, a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft could be a worthy offer. Andrews ranks as a top-5 tight end in the NFL when healthy and has proven that he is capable of being a security blanket within a group loaded with talent. Advertisement Upon signing a contract extension, McLaurin will complement Samuel by being an all-around receiving target. Samuel's dual-threat capabilities are as versatile as they come and Daniels' extraordinary rushing ability can get him out of trouble with ease. This all could allow Andrews to find space in intermediate routes through the middle of the field and fortify a diverse offense for coordinator Kliff Kingsbury. Andrews may just now be hitting the peak of his career at 29 years old, so with Baltimore's decision looming between choosing him or Likely this offseason, they could decide to get ahead of things and deal the veteran to Washington for draft compensation. Last year, Andrews caught a career-best 11 touchdowns, while also converting 39 of his 55 grabs into first downs, according to Pro Football Reference. Those numbers are a young quarterbacks best friend and allow for a fit in any offense, let alone one as dynamic as the Commanders' already is. Advertisement More star power, like Andrews, on offense opens Washington's Super Bowl window wide open for the next few years.
