Braelon Allen rushed for 173 yards and three touchdowns, Graham Mertz threw for 216 yards and two touchdowns and our defense held the line as always.
Now, we’re 7-3, still in complete control of the Big Ten West and everything we want is right in front of us. It’s hard to believe this is real after our abysmal 1-3 start.

Yet, here we are and Wisconsin is rolling. In life, there are ups and downs and this Wisconsin football season sums that up better than anything else I remember in recent memory.
Now, we gear up for Nebraska next weekend and I can’t wait. Bring on the Cornhuskers. At this point, I don’t fear anyone.
Inject my enemies into my veins!
Alabama is going to win the SEC and Wisconsin is headed to the Big Ten title game.
