MADISON, WIS. - Marcus Landry scored 15 points and Brian Butch added 12 on Senior Night as No. 8-ranked Wisconsin blasted Penn State 77-41 Wednesday.
Center Greg Stiemsma added 10 points for the Badgers, who clinched a share of the Big Ten title for the third time in coach Bo Ryan's seven seasons at Wisconsin.
The Badgers (25-4, 15-2 Big Ten) have broken the school record of 13 conference victories, set last season. Wisconsin, which has won at least 11 conference games each season under Ryan's leadership, can win the Big Ten championship outright with a victory at Northwestern on Saturday.
Landry played only 24 minutes and Butch 21 as Ryan cleared his bench early in the runaway victory.
Seniors Butch, Tanner Bronson, Michael Flowers and Stiemsma have now been a part of a school record-tying 99 victories in four seasons. That ties the mark of the Badgers team of 2004 to '07.
The four seniors have combined to play 391 games.
Since Ryan took over, the Badgers have gone 83-30 in Big Ten play, the best in the conference over that span.
Jason Bohannon scored nine points for Wisconsin and Joe Krabbenhoft scored eight points.
Freshman guard Talor Battle scored 10 points to lead the Nittany Lions (14-15, 6-11). Stanley Pringle and Jeff Brooks scored eight apiece.
