Wisconsin (4-0), which will open Big Ten play next week against No. 9 Nebraska, outscored its non-conference opponents 194-34 and scored at least 35 points in each game.
Behind Wilson, who completed 19-of-25 passes for 345 yards, the Badgers took a 31-3 halftime lead, scoring on three straight possessions in the second quarter to close out the first half.

South Dakota’s 10 points was its lowest total since scoring seven in a 38-7 loss to Central Florida in its 2010 season opener.
