Wisconsin finds themselves with a 4-1 record, with the lone blemish coming at the hands of a salty Brigham Young team that found a way to match the Badgers physically. The Cougars used spread formations and even some jet sweeps to create just enough holes in the Badgers defense. The Badgers out-yarded BYU 394 to 311, but won 24-21 in the one measurement that counts: the scoreboard.
Two weeks ago, Iowa led the Badgers much of the evening until the Badgers scored twice in the final minute to win 28-17. A season opening 34-3 win over Western Kentucky followed by a 45-14 victory over New Mexico started a 3-1 month of September for the Badgers.
