One more Big Ten note: Wisconsin cruised to a 73-59 win over Wisconsin-Green Bay.

DePaul has been playing with fire at home this year, and the Blue Demons were burned this time, by the Illinois-Chicago Flames. UIC toppled DePaul 78-75 for the biggest win of Steve McClain’s short tenure so far, and did so despite losing star Dikembe Dixson to a knee injury in the first half. Dixson was seen on the bench in the second half with tears in his eyes; McClain reported after the game that he will be evaluated tomorrow, and we can only hope the news is better than it sounds right now.
An entertaining game in eastern Ohio saw Youngstown State outlast Niagara 101-97 in overtime. Cameron Morse is back after a brief absence a few games ago and he scored 27 for the Penguins.
