Rosier, a junior, entered the bowl game completing just 54.8 percent of his passes, but his ability to throw and run helped him set the record.
On the other side of the field, Wisconsin running back Jonathan Taylor surpassed Adrian Peterson for the most rushing yards from a freshman in a single season.
