Jonathan Taylor continues to climb up Wisconsin’s all-time rushing list
Published:
Jonathan Taylor is in his junior season at Wisconsin.
Taylor has garnered attention from the entire country after eclipsing the 2,000-rushing yard mark a season ago (with 2,194 yards). He is a Heisman Trophy contender this season, without a doubt. Especially if Wisconsin keeps winning.

Taylor, who was entering his fourth game of his junior season on Saturday against Northwestern, was fifth on Wisconsin’s all-time rushing list. He had rushed for 4,611 yards prior to the game and needed 66 more to get to fourth. In the third quarter, he hit 4,689 career yards and is now fourth in Badger history:

Wisconsin led Northwestern 7-3 at the time and has been a bit sluggish after throttling Michigan a week ago. The Wisconsin-Northwestern game can be seen on ABC.
