Week 2 of the Russell Wilson Experiment for Wisconsin went pretty much the same as Week 1 -- a blowout win against an overmatched opponent, although this one is at least against an opponent that’s nominally part of a BCS conference. (Then again, Oregon State lost to Sacramento State last week, so ... )
Wisconsin Vs. Oregon State Final Score: Badgers Clobber Beleaguered Beavers, 35-0
Wisconsin pretty easily coasted through the game, picking up 20 first downs and 397 yards. Wilson was 17-of-21 passing for 189 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 11 more yards. Montee Ball ran for 118 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries as he and Wilson were responsible for every touchdown the Badgers scored.
Oregon State gained just 282 yards in total offense -- though they somehow managed 17 first downs at the same time -- in part because the running game has completely collapsed. The longest run play by the Beavers went for seven yards, and the ground game produced only 21 yards on 24 attempts. It’s looking like a long season for Oregon State.
