Star Material

The transfer from Colorado rushed for a career-best 258 yards and a school record-tying five touchdowns in 43 carries in Wisconsin’s 56-42 victory over Bowling Green at Madison, Wis.

Nobody in the program’s history has rushed for more yards in his debut, and Calhoun’s five touchdowns tied the record set by Billy Marek in 1974 and tied by Anthony Davis in 2002, both against Minnesota. Calhoun, who bested Alan Thompson’s 220-yard debut against Oklahoma in 1969, scored on runs of 20, five, five, one and nine yards. His first three were during a 35-point second quarter.
