Wisconsin teammates John Torchio and Braelon Allen created a couple of truly memorable moments in an otherwise forgettable season-opening matchup. Allen had a 96-yard touchdown scamper for the longest run from scrimmage in program history and Torchio had the school's longest interception return as the 18th-ranked Badgers trounced Championship Subdivision program Illinois State 38-0 on Saturday night. The two record-setting touchdowns showcased Wisconsin's big-play ability across its roster. "You guys saw it tonight," said Allen, who rushed for 148 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries. "Not even just on the offense. We had the longest interception return for a touchdown as well. I think both sides of the ball have explosive playmakers." Torchio opened the scoring with a 100-yard interception return late in the first quarter after Illinois State had reached the red zone.

According to outside linebacker Nick Herbig, Torchio predicted the interception before the ball was snapped. "I'm getting lined up, and Torch says, ‘Hey, Herbie, I'm about to pick this one," said Herbig, who had two of Wisconsin's four sacks. "I'm like, ‘All right.' So I'm pass rushing, and I turn around and sure enough, there's Torch with the ball in his hand. He's called the ‘Jewelry Thief' for a reason." Torchio broke the record previously held by Joe Ferguson, who scored on a 99-yard interception return in a 59-10 victory over Utah State in 2017. Wisconsin's longest run from scrimmage before Allen's breakaway was James White's 93-yard burst in a 51-3 triumph over Indiana in 2013. - Wisconsin/AP College Football
