Centre Daily Times | 01/30/2005 | Wisconsin cruises past Penn State:
“When Saturday’s game began, a good number of Penn State fans booed former Nittany Lion Sharif Chambliss.
“By the time it ended, the current Nittany Lions were receiving the same treatment.
“No. 18 Wisconsin gave Chambliss the last laugh in his return to State College and picked up its first win in the Bryce Jordan Center in six years with a systematic 76-50 pounding of Penn State.
“Playing without leading scorer Alando Tucker, the Badgers (14-4, 5-2 Big Ten), got 20 points from freshman guard Kammron Taylor and held the Nittany Lions (7-13, 1-6) to their lowest point total in more than two months.
“‘We picked a really bad night to play our worst game I think we’ve played in a long time,’ Penn State men’s basketball coach Ed DeChellis said. ‘It’s tough catching a team like them after they lose a game at home, and they came in with a little attitude that they were going to play well, and they did. We had no answers. They beat us in every fashion.’
“Aaron Johnson recorded his ninth double-double of the season with 17 points and 11 rebounds while freshman Geary Claxton scored 12 despite early foul trouble, but Penn State was rarely if ever in the game against a team it had defeated in six of seven home games. …”
