MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Melvin Gordon rushed for career highs of 253 yards and five touchdowns, and No. 19 Wisconsin ran for a Big Ten-record 644 yards to trample Bowling Green for a 68-17 victory Saturday.
Gordon had 179 yards and four scores by halftime alone before dashing for a 69-yard touchdown on his first carry of the second half. He silenced any doubters worried about his 38-yard outing the previous game.
The Badgers (2-1) forced two turnovers on back-to-back possessions by the Falcons (2-2) in the first half to break open a close game.
Gordon capitalized each time with scores before closing the half with a 21-yard touchdown run for the highlight reel.
The team rushing total was the most in the Big Ten’s modern era, dating back to 1946.
