The No. 11 Wisconsin Badgers dominated No. 8 Michigan State on the road in Week 4, earning a 30-6 victory in East Lansing.

It was an impressive tour de force by the Badgers' defense, which forced four turnovers and relentlessly pounded Michigan State QB Tyler O'Connor. And one of the biggest stars of the day will have a familiar name to Wisconsin fans.

Yep, it's another Watt brother wrecking offenses in Madison.

T.J., the younger brother of NFL star and former Badger J.J. Watt, had 2.5 sacks and 3.5 tackles for loss against the Spartans. A redshirt junior, Watt had only 1.5 tackles for loss in all of last season and is shining in his first year as a starter for the Badgers.

He's actually the third Watt to play for the Badgers, as his older brother Derek also played for the Badgers and was drafted by San Diego last year.

On Saturday, T.J. represented the family name well and his brothers were awfully proud.
