THE IMPACT:
Hawaii punts after two incomplete passes with 1 yard to go for a first down on the opening drive.

HAWAII COACH GREG MCMACKIN:
“;We were just out of sync and I'm really surprised. We had excellent practices, the guys were really jacked up and I just think we got beat by a better team.”;

2. Trend setter

THE SITUATION:
Wisconsin 0, Hawaii 0, 9:28 remaining, first quarter, Wisconsin ball, third and 4 at Hawaii 35

THE IMPACT:
RB John Clay dives into the end zone on the next play and Wisconsin takes a 7-0 lead on its first drive.

WISCONSIN COACH BRET BIELEMA:
“;Hawaii started throwing five defensive linemen out there and you have to be able to throw the ball down the field.”;

3. Moniz picked

THE SITUATION:
Wisconsin 7, Hawaii 0, 6:57 remaining, first quarter, Hawaii ball, second and 10 at Wisconsin 38

THE PLAY:
SS Jay Valai intercepts Moniz's pass with a leaping grab. No Hawaii receiver is in the area.

MONIZ:
“;We just never got anything going, we never got in a rhythm and I probably had the worst night of the season.”;

4. Clay day

THE IMPACT:
Clay gets 111 of his 172 rushing yards before halftime. Wisconsin's long drive is a demoralizing end to the first half for Hawaii.
