    Most impressive home win since 2009?

    The list of NU Dominant W's has gotta be short enough - I'm surprised you found three - seems high, cause it's not something you see every decade. But yesterday surely was one the top two of all time. Against IU, NU could hardly rush to the LOS. One week later, against PSU, NU could hardly be...

    Great finish for the Hawkeyes vs Michigan

    Great to see the Karma Bus land on UM at any time and many times, but especially after getting away with stealing an earlier game. At UM too. Not enough coverage of the army of insufferable front runners leaving the stadium with a loss stapled to their azzes. Even though it meant a glorious W...

    Game Thread: Northwestern @ No. 5 Indiana

    Time enough to win, but gonna take some luck like IU just got to even things up. Cardiac CATS, reach back for second wind.

    NU @ IU Prediction Thread

    Roethlisberger made a career of that. Could become NU's strongest play of the game cause NU is overmatched and Chiles will see plenty of pressure. Chiles may have to learn to pass running backwards. No fun to bet on failure though: NU 43 - IU 42 NU gets a safety as time expires to win. I...

    Four-star, Top 70 2027 G Jeremiah Profit is a Cat

    Just huge. His quotes are great reading, too. Congrats to CCC and the staff for closing this one. If you wonder about the state of NU hoops recruiting, it looks like this. DON'T REST!!! Great decision for you, too, Jeremiah. Welcome to Evanston. Can hardly wait to see what you can do at WR.

    Notebook: Braun calls Indiana 'the best team in the country' ahead of Friday matchup

    Last IU loss was 12/20/24. Undefeated for 19 games, 3 - 0 so far this season, but all mismatches Both the team and the fans are still finding out how good NU is. Likely to get some humility lessons, but maybe if NU finds peak performance level they can hang with IU. Himon will likely need 3...

    Best Offense Since 2000

    I think the first Himon TD showed Kelly coaches at a higher level. Just sees mismatches and weaknesses better. Been hoping for a strong O at NU for years and years and it looks like it's here at last. Only disappointment, Himon didn't break a play for 60+ yards. Hoping for one of those per game...

    Fearless Forecast: Colorado vs. Northwestern

    Chance of rain falls from 100% most of the day down, down, down all the way down to 80% later in the day. If it's that wet, there's huge element of chance to face. Good thing NU has already faced a strong-armed, accurate QB. NU 31, Neon Deions 30

    Himon speed

    Heard about it forever, but finally got to see it last game with his breakaway TD. Might see a few more this season. Could be real effective catching screens. Exciting player.

    The Good, The Bad, and The Beautiful

    The NU O is clearly a level better than it's been in many years. Enormous amount of sputtering, but looks like there's an upside to them, too IMHO, Sawchuck is the best of the 3 RBs and deserves to start, but really good to have 3 strong RBs. We always knew Himon was fast, but it was good to SEE...
