Wisconsin scored three straight goals in front of a season-high 11,075 fans at the Kohl Center to take down No. 1 Minnesota 3-1 in an upset win on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Carson Bantle posted a goal and an assist and Jack Horbach notched a pair of helpers to lead Wisconsin to the victory.<\/p>\n

Goaltender Kyle McClellan stood tall in net with 32 saves.<\/p>\n

Minnesota struck first at 18:28 in the first period when Mike Koster fired off a wrist shot from the point that hit off a Badger and sailed into the top corner.<\/p>\n

However, the Gophers’ lead was short lived. With 21 seconds remaining in the first period, Cruz Lucius beat goaltender Justen Close on his blocker side with a backhand wrist shot to tie the game at one.<\/p>\n

"WOOOOOOOO!"
