Indeed, Jalen Milroe already had established himself as one of the nation’s most dynamic players. At the same time, he is working behind an injury-riddled offensive line. With all his blockers finally healthy, Milroe got even more opportunities to showcase his explosiveness. And his passion for the game. Milroe threw three touchdowns and ran for two more as Alabama made a rare trip north and won 42-10 over Wisconsin. In turn, Wisconsin lost quarterback Tyler Van Dyke to an injury on the game’s first series.
In sum, Milroe went 12 of 17 for 196 yards. He threw touchdown passes of 31 yards to Ryan Williams, 26 yards to Germie Bernard, and 37 yards to Josh Cuevas. Also, he rushed for 75 yards on 14 carries, scoring on runs of 3 and 10 yards.
Since 2011, Alabama had not played a true road game against a team from north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Then, they scored a 27-11 victory at Penn State in 2011. Also, it marked the Crimson Tide’s first trip to Camp Randall Stadium since a 15-0 loss to Wisconsin in 1928.
Following a finish of sixth in last year’s Heisman Trophy balloting, Milroe has accounted for 14 total touchdowns (eight passing, six rushing) through Alabama’s first three games. Williams, a 17-year-old freshman, already has four touchdown catches.
