Almost every team in sports has that one person that fans curse at night when they are falling asleep. Red Sox fans still curse Bucky Dent. Cubs fans still curse Steve Bartman. Whether or not Ohio State fans still curse one particular Badger remains to be seen, but Lee Evans could definitely be the one they choose.
Let us take you back to 2003. Wisconsin comes into the game ranked 22nd in the country, and Ohio State comes in as the defending national champions with the longest winning streak in the land. On a wet sloppy night the Badgers have been holding the lead despite having their starting quarterback choked out of the game. That is until the Buckeyes strike for a touchdown in the forth quarter to tie the game up at 10.
The mood in camp randall is tense. The following year the Buckeyes always seemed to escape with a win. After the touchdown Badger fans start to think that it is about to happen all over again. That is until Lee Evans catches a bomb from back-up quarterback Matt Schabert for a touchdown. Wisconsin goes on to win, and the Ohio State win streak is over.
That is where we find our first play in our "Top Five Plays in Wisconsin Football History." So for your enjoyment, unless you're from Ohio, we present to you "Evans Busting the Buckeyes."
