MADISON, Wis.<\/b> — Nick Oddo’s Saturday night was significantly better than his Friday night.<\/p>\n
A night after being ejected eight minutes into a loss, the Ohio State center scored the go-ahead goal in the second period, and the Buckeyes upset No. 9 Wisconsin 3-1 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Ohio State’s Nick Schilkey tied the game midway through the second period just 1:38 after Mark Zengerle gave the Badgers the lead.<\/p>\n
And Oddo put the Buckeyes ahead less than four minutes later. Darik Angeli scored into an empty net in the final minute for Ohio State (12-9-1, 2-5-1 Big Ten), which earned only its second win over Wisconsin (14-7-1, 5-3) in 13 tries since 1965.<\/p>\n
Christian Frey made 36 saves for the Buckeyes, who were outshot 17-5 in the first period and 37-22 for the game.<\/p>\n
Joel Rumpel allowed two goals on 21 shots for Wisconsin.<\/p>\n
Oddo got a major checking-from-behind penalty 7:49 into Friday’s game, which Wisconsin won 5-3. The junior had a goal and an assist and was plus-2 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
