JUWAN HOWARD FIGHTWith seconds left in Sunday's game and with victory well in hand, Wisconsin called a meaningless timeout that upset Michigan head coach Juwan Howard. 

He confronted Badgers' head coach Greg Gard. While both teams tried to keep them separated, Howard ultimately landed an open-handed shot on Wisconsin assistant Joe Krabbenhoft. Multiple statements have been released following the altercation.
