A former Badger helps Iowa to a victory

While Wisconsin didn’t play today, a former Badger quarterback did see the most action of his collegiate career.

Iowa starting quarterback Cade McNamara went down in the first half against Michigan State and it was former Wisconsin Badger Deacon Hill who had to come on in relief.

While it was by no means a perfect performance from the Iowa offense and the Santa Barbara native, it was enough for a comeback victory in Hill’s first significant action in college. The former Badger went 11-27 for 115 yards and a touchdown as well as an interception in the 26-16 win over Michigan State.

There is a chance Wisconsin could see Hill in two weeks when the Hawkeyes visit Camp Randall.
