    Love Boo but...

    The real game winner was the steal of the final PSI rebound. That too was Bouie.

    Iowa WR showboats, flips into the endzone, gets hurt -- shades of Valenzisi

    maybe he can do a Kerry Skrug and land on one foot.

    Urban not a fan of Ryan Field grass

    Fair enough on the grass. For the haters, OSU was third in the latest big ten APR rankings, just behind Wisconsin 986 to 985, and was 2nd the year before that. Much better than prior to Meyer.

    Great Iowa perspective on NU-IA games

    60 rushes for 143 is less than 2.5 per carry. Our defense won this game, period, and a great defense it was.

    Which was your favorite NU football team since 2000?

    The 2000 team was the most entertaining by far. ESPN had a rerun show called instant classic, which picked the best game in the country that week. We were the featured team 2 or 3 times that year, with the OT vs. Wisconsin topped by the Minnesota miracle topped again by the insane shootout win...

    The Pardon Game

    I hope folks also recorded the 2015 Michigan game. Less historic but even more unbelievable. DEMPS!! Reminder: Down 6 with 10 seconds to go in the first overtime.

    If you feel bad about losing...

    If you feel bad about losing, get serious about supporting our 20-3 women's team. Still a mostly empty house, which is shameful.

    All-time highest class?

    Linemen count in rankings too, and we have some major studs, but the 1997 class still has to be the highest ranked.

    Surprise! Northwestern signs its 2020 QB

    I saw some highlights and he's got a gun and fine size. His release is somewhat low and speed is so-so but definitely can compete for time in the future. Welcome!

    Sparty @NU Prediction Thread

    I don't see either offense scoring more than 2 TDS barring turnovers. Odds are that the cats lose the turnover battle, but not by much. .... MSU 16 NU 10. The true underdog will be the offenses.

    Can Northwestern score on that stout MSU defense?

    dunno.. I doubt if the offense will, but a big play on defense might get us there. The 3 overtime game 2 years ago was only 17 each after regulation. Last year we had 8 yards rushing but scored big in the passing game and shut them down. I doubt if we get more than 13 from the offense at...

    Fields, Martinez, Stanley, Wisconsin's, and Purdue's first string guy if he comes back soon. No particular order yet.
