Wisconsin football defensive grades: Badgers give up most points ever in Jim Leonhard era

The Wisconsin Badgers suffered their biggest loss of the 2022 campaign in their most-anticipated matchup, falling 52-21 to the Ohio State Buckeyes on a Saturday Night matchup.

Here are the defensive grades for the Badgers in Week 4:

Defensive Line: C

Zero sacks. Zero tackles for loss. Zero quarterback hurries.

A stat sheet wasn’t necessary to tell that the Badgers’ defensive line got dominated at the line of scrimmage by the overpowering Ohio State front-five.

Going into this matchup, one of the biggest questions revolved around who would win in the trenches, especially in regards to this specific matchup, as the defensive line returned the only three starters from last year’s unit, including two captains in Keeanu Benton and Nick Herbig.
