    Some very sad news to share…

    Condolences to the Corker family and Bob's friends on this board, particularly Coral and No Chores. I'm not sure if I ever met Bob in person (I have attended a few Purple parties and official NU pre-game events along the way, so maybe) but I always enjoyed reading (and at times weighing in with...

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Illinois

    I'm with Sheffielder. Start Boe in the Detroit Bowl. Get him some full game reps and let's see what he can do. Oh, and anyone but Lujan can / should wear the OC hat.

    That was a BLATANT PI non-call. F**k the refs!

    Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Illinois

    Braun wasn't aggressive in that situation but was on earlier drives. Electing to not risk another turnover inside NU's 30 during a snowmageddon game and take a 4 point deficit into the locker room was channeling Fitz's "Discretion is the Better Part of Valor" playbook. Which has worked.

    Flakes could have pulled up and didn't. Stupid penalty that handed the keys to Illinois for 7.

    Great that he wears his emotions like that.

    NU @ UNL Prediction Thread

    The NU vs NU match-up will continue the tradition of tight outcomes but I need to stay on the side of pessimism for superstition's sake. Purple NU - 17 Red NU - 20

    Big Ten TV Schedule: Week Nine (10/25)

    Illinois is currently only a 4.5 dog at Washington. I think the Huskies win by a larger margin.

    PU @ NU Prediction Thread

    Rain is in the forecast which should give NU the edge. By the stats, Northwestern's Rush D is significantly better that Purdue's and likewise the Cats rushing offense vs. the Boilers. The latter surprises me given that Purdue have a scary mobile QB in Browne and Mockobee at RB. That said, my...

    Big Ten TV Schedule: Week Eight (10/17-10/18)

    Washington @ Michigan should be a good watch. Wonder if CBS will cut over to an alternative, more competitive game once the OSU rout kicks into high gear in Madison?

    Big Ten TV Schedule: Week Seven (10/10-10/11)

    Pretty impressive that Gary Danielson is still at it. He was a d**k where NU is concerned, but respect for still working the color coverage for the TV nets.

    NU @ PSU Prediction Thread

    I agree with TheC. NU's strengths play directly to State Penn's strengths. That said, if Lujan can come up with the right game plan (and make adjustments when needed), the OL stays consistent and opens holes for Komolafe, Himon and Reeder, WR's not named Wilde (e.g. Eligon and Wagner) can get...

    Let's beat Penn State.

    There is no coach I loathe more than James Franklin. He's a classless asshat and a legend in his own mind. State Penn's loss to UCLA was made all the richer by the associated Schadenfreude because it came while Franklin was at the controls.
