Melvin Gordon is not the only running back you need to worry about at Wisconsin
When you think of the Wisconsin Badgers football team you undoubtedly think of huge offensive linemen and a very good running game. That’s been the identity of Wisconsin ever since Barry Alvarez took over the program years ago and it still rings true with Melvin Gordon leading the rushing attack, but he’s not the only stud in the Badgers’ backfield.

Gordon may be the best running back in the country and a potential first round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, but his running buddy Corey Clement is pretty darn special as well and he is showing the Illinois Fighting Illini how dangerous he can be when he gets in the open field.
Clement busted through the holes created by his massive offensive line and raced to the end zone untouched for a 72-yard touchdown to open the fourth quarter and give Wisconsin a 37-24 lead.

After this run, Clement had 143 yards on only eight carries for a staggering 17.9 yards per carry average. Gordon has 175 yards and four touchdowns on 27 carries as the Badgers look to improve to 4-2 on the season
