Wisconsin has a second-half lead vs. No. 25 Purdue and a big-time run by Chez Mellusi put the Badgers on top.

The go-ahead drive actually started back on Wisconsin’s own 6-yard line. Everything started off and was set up by Braelon Allen scooting 70 yards down the sideline before Purdue dragged him down.

After that, it was Mellusi who went to work. A short run of 4 yards on first down set things up on the 20-yard line, and his number was called again.

This time, Mellusi was met in the backfield by a defender, but he did not blink. A brilliant spin move sprung Mellusi free before knifing through the defense for the touchdown.

It gives Wisconsin a 20-13 lead in the third quarter:

Allen is now over 100 yards on the afternoon and Mellusi is knocking on the door with 95 yards so far.
