When I got on the app they were only down 9 in the 2nd half, then Wisconsin started to roll.

They acquitted themselves fine. A typical 14-3 matchup were the the 3 seed clearly had the best player on the floor and significant size advantage. One of the gris players kept hitting 3's to keep it in striking distance but he picked a 4th foul pretty early and then Wisconsin leaned on them.

The griz were only behind by 7 points at halftime. Early in the second half they got within 4 points and had Wisconsin a bit on their heels. From that point on, Wisconsin basically asserted their size and shot better, and the griz began getting in foul trouble. Overall, the griz acquitted themselves pretty well. But with really only one player over 6-5" tall, they had a tough matchup with Wisconsin who starts two 7-footers and has numerous players well over 6'-5" tall.
