#3 – Football beats No. 6 Wisconsin in Madison

When BYU Football beat #6 Wisconsin back in September, fans were calling it one of the greatest wins in BYU history. The prior year, Wisconsin came to Provo and beat down on the Cougars, finishing with a score of 40-6. The next year, many people called the Wisconsin game a throw away, saying that the Badgers were better this year and it was at Camp Randall. With great games from Squally Canada, Sione Takitaki, and Skyler Southam, the football team went in and beat the Badgers 24-21.

The win may be blemished just a tad because Wisconsin ended up finishing the season a lowly 8-5, underperforming from their potential CFP expectations. However, beating a top 10 program on the road on national TV is still quite the accomplishment. Cougar fans will remember that missed field goal as time expired for a long time to come.
