Ohio St. laid an egg on Saturday in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin started strong, and held on to defeat the visitors from Ohio 31-18. The Badgers jumped out to a three-touchdown lead, and never looked back.
The Badgers (6-1, 2-1) had not beaten Ohio State since 2004, and the Buckeyes hadn't won by fewer than 11 points this season.
But none of that mattered while Wisconsin's offensive line battered the Buckeyes' front seven during a first-half touchdown drive that lasted — get this — 10 minutes and four seconds. John Clay helped his team churn out 89 yards on 19 plays to take a 21-0 lead.
Ohio State rebounded to drive to Wisconsin's 3-yard line. But then the Buckeyes blinked, going backward in a span of three plays. Terrelle Pryor rebounded for Ohio St. completing all seven pass attempts in the third quarter as the Buckeyes cut the lead to 21-18. It wouldn't be enough.
But Tolzien, the Wisconsin quarterback completed two clutch passes to Nick Toon, and speedy tailback James White made a Barry Sanders-esque cutback to get free for a 12-yard touchdown run.
That increased Wisconsin's lead to 28-18 with less than seven minutes to play.
It was celebration time in Wisconsin after that.
