Preliminary Injury Report
Quotable
UW junior outside linebacker T.J. Watt on watching his older brother J.J. play well and help the Badgers upset then-No. 1 Ohio State in 2010:
"A huge game, yeah. He had like three sacks or something like that and then they counted one of them as a run so he kind of got jipped on that one."
J.J. Watt's final stat line from the 2010 game: 4 tackles (2 sacks, 3 TFLs) and one QB hurry.
Stat to Know
The Badgers are the first Big Ten team to record two wins against top-1o teams (No. 5 LSU and No.8 Michigan State) in the first month of the season since Penn State beat No. 4 Arizona and No. 8 Miami (FL) before the start of October in 1999.
