WATCH: Wisconsin RB Chez Mellusi scores the first Badger touchdown of the season

It took over a half for the Badgers to finally break through on the scoreboard, but Wisconsin tied the score at 7 behind a 10-play, 75-yard drive that finished with 8:01 left in the third quarter.

It was Clemson transfer RB Chez Mellusi with his first score as a Badger on a three-yard run to finish it off. Jake Ferguson had a tremendous one-handed grab to set up Mellusi, while Danny Davis connected with Graham Mertz on the first big pass play of the afternoon for Wisconsin.

Mellusi is up to 94 rushing yards on 24 carries to go along with his touchdown in a busy Badger debut.
