Northwestern held the lead at halftime. They came into a hostile and raucous Camp Randall as heavy underdogs and managed to keep Wisconsin's offense and Alex Hornibrook in check mainly because the Wisconsin Badgers all agreed to replace their hands with the robotic grasping claws from the pick-a-prize carnival game and could barely manage to hold onto the football for more than a few plays at a time. The Badgers' opening kickoff rolled into Northwestern hands and the Badgers fell on several more fumbles.
Unfortunately for Northwestern the turnovers and defensive stops only led to a few points.
