Appreciating Jonathan Taylor’s 321-yard performance vs. Purdue

Wisconsin and Purdue have played some insane games in the past 20 years.

Future Hall of Famer Drew Brees threw for nearly 500 yards in a 1998 contest that gave birth to the “Jump Around” at Camp Randall Stadium—but he also tossed four interceptions, including a pick-six to cornerback Jamar Fletcher in a 31–24 Badgers win.

In 2004, cornerback Scott Starks picked up a Kyle Orton fumble—one that he helped cause—and took it 40 yards for the game-winning score in the fourth quarter at Ross-Ade Stadium.

Add Jonathan Taylor’s performance in Saturday’s 47–44 triple-overtime road win to the list.
