After a Badger football season plagued by injuries which hampered preseason expectations, the University of Wisconsin football team (7-5) finished on a high note in New York where they beat the Miami Hurricanes (7-5) in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl 34-3 Thursday night.
A signature Badger offense was not in short supply as the rush attack and defense were able to showcase their weapons and dominate the Hurricanes. Sophomore running back Jonathan Taylor finishing with 205 yards on 27 carries and the Wisconsin defense forced five turnovers on the night.
The Badger offense was hot out of the gate in the first quarter, capitalizing on Taylor’s consistent pickups to set up a 35-yard Jack Coan touchdown pass to wide receiver Kendric Pryor which capped a drive of just six plays.
