Wisconsin overcomes 17-0 deficit to stun No. 13 Penn State in biggest win of Luke Fickell's tenure

For a quarter and a half, it looked like it was going to be another listless Wisconsin loss under Luke Fickell. Then it became the biggest win of the coach’s tenure in Madison.

The unranked Badgers overcame a 17-0 deficit to upset No. 13 Penn State on the road, capping things off with a 72 yard pass from Colton Joseph to Jacob Harris with less than two minutes left. It left Penn State with enough time for a last-minute drive, but that ended with a Hail Mary bouncing incomplete as time expired.

Final score: Wisconsin 24, Penn State 20.
