How the Badgers ran and passed: Game 12

Against Minnesota, Melvin Gordon had a good game, but not his typically great one. He never really busted loose, yet had over 5 yards per carry in every direction he ran except -- surprisingly -- to the left and outside, which is usually a big gain for Gordon.

Meanwhile, Corey Clement had limited carries but going up the middle proved to be a strong play for him. Again, somewhat of a surprise.

And, once again, Tanner McEvoy didn't attempt a pass so he's not included in this week's edition. But I've included penalties again, this time sorted by type.

OK, here's the stats from against Minnesota and for the season:

Run vs. Minnesota


* -- Includes one rush right wide by Alex Erickson for 0 yards and one rush wide by Kenzel Doe for -6 yards.
