  Wisconsin running back Chez Mellusi devoted his offseason to preparing for a greater workload than he'd ever experienced in two seasons at Clemson. Little did he know just how many more carries he'd end up getting with his new team. Mellusi had more rushing attempts in one game with the Badgers than he did in the entire 2020 season with the Tigers. In his Wisconsin debut, Mellusi ran for 121 yards on 31 carries and scored the Badgers' lone touchdown in a 16-10 loss to Penn State.

It was just the kind of responsibility Mellusi wanted. He transferred from an annual College Football Playoff contender in part because he was intrigued by Wisconsin's tradition of producing top running backs. "It kind of speaks for itself when it comes to the history, with the guys coming through here and the success they've had," Mellusi said. "That kind of drew me in. And being able to run the football a lot kind of gives you the opportunity to showcase your talent." The only Football Bowl Subdivision player with more carries last week was Central Florida's Isaiah Bowser, who ran 33 times for 172 yards in a 36-31 victory over Boise State. Mellusi's emergence has given a new look to No. 18 Wisconsin's ground attack heading into its Saturday night matchup with Eastern Michigan (1-0). - AP College Football
