MADISON, Wis. - Senior quarterback Tyler Donovan threw for one touchdown and scrambled for another as Wisconsin held off a fourth-quarter rally to upset No. 13 Michigan 37-21 on Saturday.

The Badgers (8-3, 4-3 Big Ten) snapped the Wolverines' eight-game winning streak, robbing Michigan of momentum going into its annual matchup with Ohio State.

Michigan (8-3, 6-1) played without injured running back Mike Hart, and Ryan Mallett relieved ailing QB Chad Henne in the first quarter.

PENN STATE 31, TEMPLE 0: Anthony Morelli threw a pair of TDs to Jordan Norwood, exciting the thousands of Penn State (8-3) fans who turned Temple's stadium into a mini Happy Valley for the afternoon. Rodney Kinlaw rushed for a career-high 168 yards, including a 10-yard TD run in the fourth. He also surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for the season.

NORTHWESTERN 31, INDIANA 28: C.J. Bacher hit Ross Lane on a 3-yard TD pass with 44 seconds to go, capping a 73-yard drive and lifting host Northwestern (6-5, 3-4) past Indiana (6-5, 2-5). Indiana had driven 80 yards with Kellen Lewis passing to James Hardy for a 5-yard TD to put the Hoosiers ahead 28-24.

MICHIGAN STATE 48, PURDUE 31: Brian Hoyer passed for 266 yards and two TDs, and Michigan State (6-5, 2-5) beat host Purdue (7-4, 3-4) to end a three-game losing streak and become bowl eligible.
