MADISON, Wis. -- The Wisconsin women's basketball team hits the road for the final game of the regular season against Michigan on Sunday. Game time is 1 p.m. CT from the Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

1. LAST TIME OUT: It was a sentimental night for Wisconsin as the seniors stepped on to the Kohl Center court one last time. Seniors Marsha Howard, Kelly Karlis, and Lexy Richardson stole the show despite UW dropping its final home game against Ohio State, 61-50, on Thursday night. Down by 18 early in the third quarter, the Badgers brought it back within eight points three times including a 9-0 UW run in the fourth quarter to pull within 54-46 with 2:05 left to play. The Badgers were forced to foul and OSU made five free throws in the last two minutes to seal the deal.

2. FREE POINTS: The Badgers shots a season-high 85.7 percent (12-14) from the free-throw line Thursday night against Ohio State. Three Badgers shot perfect from the charity stripe: Howard (4-4), freshman Imani Lewis (3-3), and Karlis (2-2).

3. HOME COURT ADVANTAGE: Wisconsin wraps up its home season with a 10-6 record, its most home wins since going 12-5 in 2008-09. Michigan also has a strong home court advantage with a 12-1 record this season. The Badgers hope to be only the second team to defeat the Wolverines on their home court on Sunday.

4. SO WE MEET AGAIN: Earlier this season, Michigan traveled to the Kohl Center and grabbed a 16-point lead that neither Wisconsin nor a 30-point performance from Howard could overcome, falling 76-70. But UW still leads the all-times series versus Michigan,40-28, the series in Madison, 22-11, and holds on to the series in Ann Arbor, 17-15. Michigan has won the past five meetings against Wisconsin.

5. SCOUTING THE WOLVERINES: Last week, Michigan closed within five points with 4:27 to go in the game but could get no closer, falling 74-64 to Michigan State. Freshman Naz Hillmon led the Wolverines as she tallied her seventh double-double of the season with a career-high 27 points to go with 11 rebounds. Senior Nicole Munger was Michigan's other double-figure scorer with 14 points.
