fifth in the country in scoring offense averaging 41.5 points per game. Their 45.2 points per game in conference play was the secondhighest average in Big Ten history. Wisconsin nearly became the first team in FBS history to have three running backs gain 1,000 yards in the same season as James White finished with 1,052 yards, John Clay had 1,012 and Ball ran for 996. Wisconsin was the most disciplined team in the country in 2010, leading the nation in both fewest turnovers with nine and fewest penalties per game with an average of 3.15. UW also ranked in the top 10 nationally in pass efficiency, third-down conversions, fourthdown conversions, red zone offense, time of possession and turnover margin. The Badgers were one of just six teams in the country to rank among the top 25 in both total offense and total defense. Wisconsin players took home several national awards in 2010, including the Outland Trophy (Gabe Carimi), the Lott IMPACT Trophy (J.J. Watt) and the Unitas Golden Arm Award (Scott Tolzien). Carimi, Clay, Lance Kendricks, John Moffitt and Watt were all named AllAmericans, giving Wisconsin its most All-America honorees since 1999. Bielema also garnered national acclaim for the Badgers’ tremendous season. He was named a finalist for the Eddie Robinson, Bear Bryant and Home Depot Coach of the Year awards as well as a semifinalist for the Joseph V. Paterno Coach of the Year Award. Eighteen players received All-Big Ten recognition, including five first-teamers. Carimi, Kendricks, Moffitt, Watt and Antonio Fenelus were all named first-team All-Big Ten, while Carimi was named Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year and White was chosen as the Big Ten Freshman of the Year. Wisconsin’s success under Bielema translated to the classroom as well with 131 academic all-conference selections in seven seasons. UW had a school-record 25 members of the football team honored as Academic All-Big Ten in 2012, breaking the previous record of 22 set in 2009 and matched in 2010.
