No. 13 Penn State blew a 17-point first-half lead en route to a 24-20 home loss to Wisconsin on Saturday.

Wisconsin quarterback Colton Joseph fired touchdown passes to Eugene Hilton Jr. (11 yards, with 3:31 left) and Jacob Harris (72 yards, with 1:13 remaining) to turn a 20-10 fourth-quarter deficit into a 24-20 lead.

The Badgers were in serious trouble on the drive leading to the Harris score and faced a 2nd-and-19 on their own six-yard line. However, Joseph hit Darrion Dupree for 25 yards before connecting with Harris for the game-winning score.

Penn State had a minute-and-change to drive down the field and got as far as the Wisconsin 29-yard line but could not go any further after a sack and three incomplete passes led to time running out.
