Iowa @ Wisconsin
- Iowa RB Akrum Wadley did the bulk of his work against Ohio State running to either side of center James Daniels, as his nine ‘A’ gap runs accounted for 80 of his 118 yards on the ground against the Buckeyes. He also earned 52 yards after initial contact on those runs, and three of the four missed tackles he forced for the game came on the inside carries.
- Wisconsin RB Jonathan Taylor has forced 54 total missed tackles this season, ranking him first among Big Ten running backs in elusive rating. Wadley has forced 35 this year, and ranks just 20th among Big Ten backs with at least 50 carries in 2017, after ranking fourth in the conference last year.
- Wisconsin edge Andrew Van Ginkel has racked up 25 total QB pressures this season on 142 pass-rush snaps, which ranks him No. 1 in pass-rush productivity among all Big Ten edge rushers. Garret Dooley of the Badgers has been excellent as well, as his 29 total pressures on 234 rushes ranks him eighth in the category.
