BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Jonathan Taylor rushed for 183 yards and one touchdown and Alec Ingold added three scores Saturday to help No. 4 Wisconsin pull away with a 45-17 victory at Indiana.
The Badgers (9-0, 6-0, No. 9 CFP) extended the nation's second-longest winning streak to 10 and their school record for consecutive Big Ten victories to 12. They also remained one of a handful of unbeaten teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
Indiana (3-6, 0-6) suffered a 10th consecutive loss in the series in the first meeting between the schools since 2013.
The Badgers fought through a slow start however before closing out the win with a dominating last stanza.
Down by 10 early in the first quarter, the undefeated Badgers charged back by scoring 24 straight to take control midway through the third quarter.
The Hoosiers got within 24-17 when Richard Lagow threw a 17-yard TD pass to Simmie Cobbs Jr. with 4:12 left in the third.
But Joe Ferguson picked off Lagow passes in Indiana territory on each of the Hoosiers' next two drives. Ingold capped both with 1-yard TD plunges to seal the win. Bradrick Shaw added another 1-yard run after Indiana gave up the ball on downs.
Ingold started in place of fullback Austin Ramesh, who did not make the trip, and scored three times while touching the ball only five times. In addition to the two short TD runs, he caught an 18-yard TD pass in the first half for his only catch of the day.
Lagow was 20 of 34 for 226 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, but the Badgers' defense gave up only 40 yards rushing on 21 carries.
Wisconsin can clinch the West Division title and a trip to the Big Ten championship game with a home win over Iowa next week at Camp Randall Stadium.
