Northwestern is going to be a handful for everyone this season it appears. PSU looks like hot garbage, yes...but jNW has some dogs...

Northwestern is pretty solid this year. I watched them dismantle Colorado a couple weeks ago and thought so then. With that said, this might be the softest, weakest psu team I can remember. Their run defense is pathetic. They look awful.

good news is that maybe wi hasn’t taken a big step forward but bad news is that nw may be turning into effing indiana before our eyes

I think WI took a small step forward, PSU is hot garbage, and NW has taken a nice step forward. Fully expect New Ryan field to be Kinnick East for the Iowa game and for that game to be a dog fight. They aren't running for 400, but their QB will give us some problems, he's pretty damn good

I wonder if Campbell will even get a chance to recruit for next year once his iast players leave. Or if he will be run out of town. I'd guess he will get at least one more year. But if I were him, I wouldn't worry too much. If they let him go, just retire and keep getting paid for the next 7 years. Get a villa in the Caribbean and send your kids to an elite prep school In New York. No problem.

After watching the game , I wonder if it is time to retire Kinnick? NW has a nice stadium.
Absolutely if you get a donor to throw a BILLION + dollars our way. Ryan cost 850 million for a pint sized stadium. The Chiefs new stadium will supposedly cost 3 BILLION! On top of which Kinnick is iconic like Wrigley field, so NO.
