In Pictures: Badgers' Defense Shuts Down Eagles
The atmosphere at Camp Randall Stadium was tense as the Wisconsin Badgers and the Georgia Southern Eagles found themselves locked in a 7-7 tie at halftime. The energy shifted dramatically in the second half as the Badgers came alive to secure a huge 35-14 victory.
This win couldn't have come at a better time, especially as the Badgers prepare to go up against Purdue this Friday in Indiana.
Badgers' Defense Outplayed Georgia Southern Eagles
Safety Preston Zachman effectively stopped a pass aimed at Georgia Southern's wide receiver, Khaleb Hood. Linebacker Maema Njongmeta showcased his talent by recovering a fumble. C.J. Goetz's timely interception helped sway the momentum further in Wisconsin's favor. Hunter Wohler, another Badger safety, put up the pressure by sacking Georgia Southern's quarterback Davis Brin, while cornerback Ricardo Hallman forced a wide receiver out of bounds.
After such a great win, the question is now, can the Badgers' Defense maintain this momentum when they go up against Purdue this coming Friday? With plays like these, they very well could.
