It's a surprisingly loud Saturday in the Big House, where Michigan fans are vibrating the camera rigs with their noise even though the visiting team in red isn't Ohio State. The Wolverines get some key shots in early, including a sack on Scott Tolzien on the Badgers' first drive that forces a punt, but Wisconsin seems to know that Denard Robinson will be getting most of the touches on offense for Michigan, and have planned accordingly.
Two lengthy and fruitless drives take up half the first quarter before Wisconsin settles down. A drive that includes nine rushing plays and one 21-yard pass from Tolzien to David Gilreath ends in a one-yard touchdown run from Montee Ball with 3:20 remaining in the quarter. Michigan is deep in Wisconsin territory, on the tail-end of a Robinson-heavy series, and reaches the Badgers' 17-yard line as the clock winds down.
At the end of the first quarter, Wisconsin leads Michigan, 7-0. Follow along with fans of both teams in our live threads.
