We apologize for the delay in getting our coverage underway this afternoon, folks.

We join the game at Camp Randall Stadium in progress, with the Golden Gophers trailing the nineteenth-ranked Badgers by a score of 14-0.

The Badgers took that lead with two first quarter touchdowns, one coming on a three yard touchdown pass from quarterback Scott Tolzien to Jared Abbrederis, and another one coming on a one-yard run by tailback John Clay.

The Gophers just moved downfield on a long drive, but stalled in the red zone and had to settle for a 23-yard Eric Ellestad to make the score 14-3 with just under six minutes remaining until halftime.
