Wiscy did some very strange things in the second half.
I know people keep saying this, but they did what they had to. We sold out to stop the run by run blitzing every play in the 2nd half, they had 8 carries for 20 yards after their opening drive. After we figured out our DBs could blanket their WRs all game and McEvoy couldnt hit the broadside of a barn we stuffed 8 guys in the box and kept meeting the RBs in the backfield instead of letting Wisconsin's OL open up huge holes in our front 4.
It was an adjustment we made that affected their running game and forced them to start throwing it if they wanted to move the ball.

This, the run game was shut down and they were forced to throw after that opening drive.

I agree, but not sure why they had to throw down field. They had TE on LB mismatches in the middle, and opportunity for tunnel, bubble and receiver screens wide open to them.
Again, I'm not taking anything away from the come from behind win, I'm just saying Wiscy called some strange pass plays given how your defense cheated up.
