Wisconsin gained 113 yards on the ground in the third, and the Badgers now lead 24-7. Wisconsin stifled Purdue's offense, giving up just -6 total yards in the quarter. The Badgers have scored 24 unanswered points.
Wisconsin expanded its lead to 24-7 thanks to a two-play, 72-yard drive that ended when Montee Ball pounded in a 67-yard touchdown run. The run was the longest of Ball's career and it tied him for the most touchdowns in Big Ten history (71).
Congratulations @M_Ball28 on tying the big ten TD record! #Badgers

The Badgers will start the fourth quarter with the ball on the Boilermakers' 20-yard line.
