Locke throws for 359 yards and 3 TDs as Wisconsin steamrolls slumping Purdue 52-6

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Frustrated over their second-half collapse at Southern California a week earlier, Braedyn Locke and the Wisconsin Badgers wanted to make sure they delivered a more complete performance Saturday.

Did they ever.Locke threw for 359 yards and connected with Trech Kekahuna on two of his three touchdown passes as Wisconsin trounced Purdue 52-6 on Saturday to snap a two-game skid.The Badgers (3-2, 1-1 Big Ten) racked up the last 38 points of the game, reached the end zone on five consecutive drives and outscored Purdue 31-0 in the second half. The Badgers had been outscored 28-0 in the second half of their 38-21 loss to No. 11 USC.

“I was really just proud of our team for putting together four full quarters of football and never letting off the gas,” said Locke, whose 359 yards passing represented the seventh-highest total in school history.
