After a scoreless first quarter against Iowa on the road, Wisconsin decided to switch Bart Houston in at quarterback.
Alex Hornibrook wasn’t losing the game, completing 5-of-10 passes for 55 yards, but wasn’t giving the Badgers a lift. Once Houston came in, however, the offense picked up.
Concluding Houston’s first drive was a 17-yard touchdown pass to Troy Fumagalli.
