MADISON—The No. 5 Wisconsin Badgers did not start off well on Saturday, but they picked up steam in the second half to ultimately pull away against New Mexico inside Camp Randall Stadium with a 45-14 win.
Despite a first half fumble, sophomore running back Jonathan Taylor rushed for 253 yards on 33 carries with three touchdowns. Wide receiver A.J. Taylor reeled in five receptions for 134 yards and a score, while a defense that gave up nearly 90 yards on the first drive of the game contained a New Mexico offense to just 124 yards for the rest of the game.
