The University of Wisconsin won the Big Ten Saturday, defeating Ohio State 34-20 in the championship game.
Wisconsin finished 6-1 in Big Ten play, losing only to Michigan. The Badgers didn’t have the best record in the Big Ten, that belonged to Indiana, but IU was not eligible for the championship game because they used ineligible players last season.
