One of the heroes of the game forWisconsinwas running back Bryan Jackson II, who transferred in from USC last offseason. Playing against his former team for the first time, Jackson ran for 38 yards and a touchdown to help the Badgers take down theTrojans.

Following the game, Jackson took a shot at USC.
"Gritty ain't pretty,"Jackson said. "We played the harder football game, brought it to them, and they can't really do nothing with us. It's just two different types of football."
As if what happened on the football field was not embarrassing enough for USC, the Trojans now have their former running back throwing shade at them. But hey, at leastLincoln Riley thought they ran the ball well.
