IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – There were times earlier this season when Wisconsin didn’t look all that remarkable.
That’s certainly changed the past two weeks.
No. 9 Wisconsin (7-1, 3-1 Big Ten) put its upset of then-No. 1 Ohio State behind it with a gutsy 31-30 comeback win at Iowa on Saturday.
The Badgers rolled off four scoring drives of at least 10 plays on the road against one of the nation’s top defense. They also converted all three of their fourth-down tries – including Brad Nortman’s daring 17-yard run midway through the fourth quarter that kept the eventual winning drive alive.
Though the Badgers are still looking up at unbeaten Michigan State in the Big Ten standings, they go into their bye week knowing they’ve survived their toughest stretch of the season.
