The leading individual lines were distributed across the box score. The scoring sequence opened with N. Kim pass to N. Devereaux for 18 yds, for a TD (R. Kessinger KICK); G. Lahm 39 yd FG GOOD; C. Joseph run for 4 yds, for a TD (G. Lahm KICK); C. Joseph pass to C. Brooks Jr. for 75 yds, for a TD (G. Lahm KICK); D. Dupree run for 10 yds, for a TD (G.

The ESPN event packet did not expose a suitable dated highlight for native embedding at this check. The recap therefore relies on the verified box score, scoring plays and leaders rather than adding an unrelated clip.
The final moves Wisconsin Badgers to a new record and leaves Eastern Michigan Eagles at its updated record. For the Saturday window, the consequence is clear: Wisconsin Badgers banked a completed result while Eastern Michigan Eagles leaves with the specific execution gap shown by the game's final margins and team statistics.
