Joel Stave threw for 187 yards and the game's first touchdown pass to Jacob Pedersen for Wisconsin (2-1). The Badgers had just five yards rushing in the first quarter, but Melvin Gordon finished the game with 193 and a pair of scores.
Trailing 14-3 in the second quarter, Kelly led a 10-play, 75-yard drive that was capped off by a 1-yard touchdown run by Grice and Zane Gonzalez added a 19-yard field goal to bring the Sun Devils within one before halftime. Arizona State dominated statistically in the first half, outgaining Wisconsin 219-101 in total yards, but the Badgers held their own after Beau Allen recovered a fumbled snap on a punt attempt in the end zone that followed Stave's 2-yard touchdown pass.
Trailing 24-19 in the fourth quarter the Sun Devils rallied again as Grice added his third score of the night on a 2-yard run to take the lead. The Badgers were driving into Arizona State territory and were in field goal range, but poor clock management led to time expiring with no field goal attempt coming.
