Wisconsin Football defensive grades: Badgers create turnover mayhem in 66-7 victory

The Wisconsin Badgers defeated the New Mexico State Aggies to the tune of 66-7, controlling the game from the opening drive and never taking their foot off the gas, even with backups in the game.

Here are the defensive grades from the game:

Defensive Line: B+

The Badgers’ defensive line looked good on Saturday, consistently making quarterbacks Diego Pavia and Gavin Frakes uncomfortable while allowing just 3.3 yards per carry on the ground.

Overall, the defensive line seemed disciplined when defending the run, covering both avenues on zone reads and filling in lanes correctly, overpowering the outmatched Aggies’ offensive line.
