MADISON—If someone told you before Saturday’s game that Wisconsin would amass 394 yards of total offense, including over 200 yards rushing, you probably would have a predicted a Badgers victory.
Instead, Wisconsin suffered a 24-21 upset loss to BYU, its first non-conference home loss since 2003. It was a total team failure and despite the yardage numbers in the box score, the offense struggled mightily at times, failing to pick up a defense that was on its heels for wide stretches of the game.
Here are some of the key issues on offense that led to the upset.
