That was fun.
In their home opener Saturday afternoon at Camp Randall Stadium, the Wisconsin Badgers controlled the clock from the outset by rattling off a first possession of 6:55 for a touchdown to senior running back Corey Clement. The time-of-possession battle was huge for Wisconsin early in this one, with the Badgers holding the ball for 13:47 of the first quarter in a 54-10 win over the Akron Zips.
The second quarter was much more balanced, as senior quarterback Bart Houston let it fly. Jazz Peavy caught the first two* touchdowns of his career and, by halftime, had seven catches for 100 yards.
