INDIVIDUAL NOTES
  • Senior RB Corey Clement recorded his sixth 100-yard rushing game of the season (and fifth in the last six games) and became the 17th player in Badgers history to rush for 1,000 yards in a season. Those 17 UW players have combined for a total of 30 1,000-yard seasons. Clement scored a 6-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, the 34th total touchdown of his career, to match Brent Moss (1991-94) for the ninth-most total TDs in school history.  
  • Sophomore FB Alec Ingold scored two touchdowns in a game for the second time in his career (also had two rushing TDs vs. Purdue on Oct. 17, 2015). Ingold scored his first rushing touchdown of the season on a 1-yard run in the second quarter and then scored his second TD reception of the season (and his career) on a 19-yard pass from Bart Houston later in the period.
  • Junior WR Jazz Peavy recorded his fifth touchdown reception of the season (and of his career) on a 25-yard pass from Alex Hornibrook in the third quarter.
  • Senior OLB Vince Biegel recorded his second sack of the season — his first since UW's season opener vs. LSU on Sept. 3 — in the third quarter. Biegel moved past J.J. Watt for 12th place on UW's all-time tackles for loss list, with 37.5 for his career.
  • Junior OLB T.J. Watt recorded the first interception of his career, batting down a David Blough pass in the second quarter and returning it 17 yards for a touchdown.
  • Sophomore ILB T.J. Edwards recorded his second interception the season (and of his career) in the second quarter, deflecting a David Blough pass and coming down with the ball.
  • Senior CB Sojourn Shelton broke up a pass in the first quarter, giving him 32 pass breakups (No. 4 all-time at UW) and 39 total passes defended (No. 6 all-time at UW) for his career. Shelton has recorded a career-high 14 passes defended (2 INTs, career-best 12 PBUs) this season.
