Wisconsin quarterback Braedyn Locke addressed his pick-six following the Badgers’ 28-13 loss to Penn State on Saturday.
The play, which ultimately proved to be Penn State’s game-winning score, arrived at the 6:35-minute mark of the third quarter. With Wisconsin leading 10-7 and backed up at its seven-yard line, Locke tossed a bullet down the middle to Penn State safety Jaylen Reed.
Reed returned the interception roughly 19 yards to the end zone to push Penn State ahead 13-10 in the third quarter. UW would manage to capitalize on a field goal on its ensuing drive, but that would be Wisconsin’s final points of the night.
Locke spoke on the moment with media members after the game. Here’s what he had to say:

“Gotta make a better decision [and] not throw it to the other team,” Locke emphasized.
When asked if he saw Reed, he confirmed that he saw the defensive back as the play developed. The pass appeared to be intended for tight end Tucker Ashcraft.
Locke finished the game with 22 completions for 217 passing yards. Wide receivers Will Pauling and Vinny Anthony combined to reel in 15 of those completions for 147 receiving yards. Through seven games, Locke has passed for 1,281 yards and seven touchdowns.
UW’s next game is slated for Nov. 2 against the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City, Iowa.
