BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Jordan Taylor scored a career-high 39 points and almost single-handedly stopped Indiana's second-half charge, leading No. 10 Wisconsin to a 77-67 victory on Thursday.

With three of Wisconsin's starters in foul trouble, Taylor accounted for all the Badgers' points in a decisive 14-4 run midway through the second half. That spurt turned a 46-45 lead into a 60-49 advantage.
Taylor went 11 for 19 from the field, including a 7-for-8 night from 3-point range, and made all 10 of his free-throw attempts. He fell one point shy of the Assembly Hall record for an opposing player, set by Michigan State's Terry Furlow in 1976 and matched when the Spartans' Shawn Respert scored 40 in 1995.
The Badgers (23-6, 13-4 Big Ten) now have won eight straight against Indiana, their longest winning streak in the series since an 11-game run from 1912-19. They will carry a four-game winning streak into Sunday's rematch at No. 1 Ohio State.
