Wisconsin seeks to build on its momentum after dramatic comeback at Penn State

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The University of Wisconsin's football team triumphed over then-No. 13 Penn State, erasing a 17-point deficit in a dramatic comeback. This victory marked coach Luke Fickell's signature win during his tenure. Wisconsin's 24-20 win moved the Badgers near the Top 25 and raised their potential ceiling as they attempt to rebound from two consecutive losing seasons.

The Badgers must now avoid a letdown against Michigan State on Saturday and prove they can maintain their success, having been ranked among the worst in the Football Bowl Subdivision for points per game, yards per game, and yards per play last year.
