EVANSTON, Ill. - Jason Wright caught a 53-yard touchdown pass and added a 1-yard scoring run following a fake field goal in Northwestern's 16-7 victory over No. 20 Wisconsin on Saturday.
The Wildcats (4-4, 2-2 Big Ten) got 104 yards rushing from Noah Herron, who keyed the game's biggest and most surprising play.
Northwestern led 9-7 and faced fourth-and-6 at the 23 when coach Randy Walker sent in his field-goal unit and fooled everyone.
Eric Batis took the snap, slipped the ball between the legs of Herron and ran left with a group of blockers to draw the defense. Herron stood still for a couple of counts, then took off with the ball to the right for a 20-yard gain and a first down.
