The sophomore let the shot clock wind down with Zak Showalter guarding him for the Badgers (9-8, 1-3). Showalter had a hand up when Trimble let loose the winning shot.

Trimble swaggered as he backpedaled after the bucket stunned the Kohl Center crowd.

Robert Carter Jr. added 14 points and 11 rebounds for Maryland.

The Badgers had tied it at 60 on Bronson Koenig's 3 with 23 seconds left, capitalizing after Rasheed Sulaimon missed the front end of a 1-and-1 with 40 seconds to go.
