Prominent ESPN host Scott Van Pelt had a front-row seat to Maryland basketball's 76-68 win over Wisconsin on Wednesday. That is stated literally -- Van Pelt sat courtside as the Terrapins rode a 44-37 second half to the eight-point win.

So at 3:57, he picked up an offensive foul, which was his second of the half. That was the last time he saw the court in the first frame. Even worse, Wisconsin sophomore guard John Blackwell (who has averaged 20.3 points per game over the previous seven games) had been sitting with two fouls since 9:06, scoreless.

Tonje, a sixth-year shooting guard who spent his first four seasons at Colorado State and last winter at Missouri, racked up game highs in both points (23) and 3-pointers (five) and grabbed six rebounds for Wisconsin. But the Terps (17-5, 7-4 Big Ten) emerged with a 76-68 victory thanks to double-digit production from all five of their starters.
