Michigan overcomes 19-point halftime deficit to beat No. 9 WisconsinBy Dan Feldman

Senior nose tackle Terrance Taylor wasn’t going out like that.
With the Michigan football team trailing 19-0 at halftime to No. 9 Wisconsin, Taylor was running through the tunnel when his frustration boiled over. He started yelling, trying to motivate his teammates — especially the offense, which had just 21 total yards and one first down to that point. He kept talking once the Wolverines reached the locker room until the coaches arrived.
Taylor’s impromptu pep talk worked. Michigan (1-0 Big Ten, 2-2 overall) rallied to beat the Badgers, 27-25. The win was the Wolverines' largest comeback at Michigan Stadium.
Michigan entered the matchup with Wisconsin (0-1 Big Ten, 3-1 overall) unranked for the first time since 1967. The Badgers were ranked for the game for the first time in eight years.
