The Wisconsin Badgers got their third straight double-digit victory, defeating the Northwestern Wildcats 23-3 on Saturday to improve to 5-2 on the season and 3-1 in Big Ten play.
After putting together 94 points in their last two outings, the Badgers had some more issues to overcome on Sunday, but relied on a strong rushing attack and a superb defensive effort to pull off another big victory on Saturday.
Quarterback Braedyn Locke didn’t have his strongest game of the year, tossing for just 160 yards and committing two turnovers, but running back Tawee Walker went off again, while the defense held Northwestern without a touchdown for the first time all season.
