The Badgers dominated on the ground with an astonishing total of 403 rushing yards, including a remarkable 51-yard touchdown run that was part of their four rushing touchdowns. Their running game proved unstoppable as they averaged over seven yards per carry across 55 attempts. The passing game also contributed significantly to their victory with two touchdowns and a completion rate of nearly eighty percent, accumulating over two hundred yards through the air.


Wisconsin's defense applied pressure throughout the game, recording two sacks and securing one interception. This interception led to minimal return yardage but was crucial in halting Purdue's momentum. The defensive unit held strong against their opponents' advances, further solidifying their lead.

Special teams played a role in Wisconsin's comprehensive win as well; they executed flawlessly in both kicking and punting aspects. A highlight was a field goal from beyond fifty yards that sailed through the uprights, contributing three points to their tally.


Penalties were kept to a minimum by both teams with only three infractions against the Badgers for twenty-five yards lost. This discipline allowed them to maintain control of the game without giving away significant yardage or crucial first downs due to penalties.
