WATCH: Two incredible runs give Wisconsin the lead at Purdue

In vintage Wisconsin fashion, the Badgers relied on their running backs to give themselves a third-quarter lead at Purdue. UW went 94 yards in only three plays as the Badgers took a 20-13 advantage a little more than halfway through the third quarter.

It started with the longest play of Braelon Allen’s young career, as the Badger freshman broke free down the right side for a 70-yard run. Then, only two plays later Clemson transfer Chez Mellusi broke off the best run of his Wisconsin career as he made Purdue miss with a vicious spin in the backfield before breaking through for a 20-yard touchdown.
