The Wisconsin Badgers dominated the Rutgers Scarlet Knights 42-7 in Piscataway, New Jersey, on Saturday.
A week after demolishing the Purdue Boilermakers 52-6 in Week 6 at Camp Randall, the Badgers rolled to a 42-7 triumph for their fourth win of the 2024 campaign. UW registered 557 total yards on offense and allowed Rutgers to only 273.
Wisconsin’s first pair of highlights came on the team’s first drive of the opening quarter when quarterback Braedyn Locke tossed a 34-yard dime to wide receiver Vinny Anthony II before hitting veteran pass-catcher Will Pauling for a 16-yard score just two plays later.
UW running back Tawee Walker would find the end zone on Wisconsin’s next scoring drive in the first half to push the Badgers ahead 14-0. Walker would add a 55-yard rush to his Saturday afternoon output en route to 201 total yards and three rushing touchdowns to spearhead Wisconsin’s rushing attack.

After failing to add to their total before the half, Luke Fickell’s squad added 28 more points in the second half to seal the deal. Anthony II reeled in a 47-yard catch, running back Cade Yacamelli was responsible for a 45-yard rush and freshman running back Darrion Dupree scored his first career rushing touchdown in the blowout.
Wisconsin will look to build off its momentum in its next test against the Northwestern Wildcats in Evanston, Illinois, on Oct. 19. If the team continues to blend its splash plays through the air with its dependable rushing unit, they should secure their third conference win in a row next weekend.
