How It Works
Wisconsin Badgers vs LSU Tigers — ReliaQuest Bowl, January 1, 2024
31–35BOWL
About This Game
Wisconsin came to Tampa ready to assert dominance, and early in the ReliaQuest Bowl, the Badgers looked unstoppable. Tanner Mordecai struck quickly with two touchdown passes in the first quarter, then Jackson Acker's 33-yard rushing touchdown in the third gave Wisconsin a commanding 28-14 lead. The script appeared written: Wisconsin's efficient offense piling up 1,302 yards across 27 drives, converting nine scoring opportunities into touchdowns.
But Garrett Nussmeier had other plans. Making his first college start in LSU's post-Jayden Daniels era, the third-year sophomore engineered a stunning second-half turnaround. Brian Thomas Jr. caught two touchdown passes from Nussmeier, who calmly orchestrated drives that answered Wisconsin's momentum. Chris Hilton Jr. added another scoring reception, and by the end of the third quarter, LSU had pulled even at 28-28. In the fourth quarter, with the game hanging in the balance, Nussmeier led one final drive that culminated in his fourth touchdown pass to Thomas with 3:08 remaining, giving LSU a thrilling 35-31 victory.
