I don’t know a ton, but they’re only Northwest of the East Coast Bias nation (well, if you see the population line where 80% of the country lives [edge of the dust bowl – east], they are in the NW corner of that). There is Southwestern in TX, a Northeastern in Boston, and a Southeastern in FL. But Northwestern is the best known of the bi-directional schools and is quite good at academics.
Pat Fitzgerald was fired for not knowing but should have known hazing brought to light by players. The season should have been a bust, but they outperformed and went 7-5. Looks like they are a 200 yard passing, 100 yard rushing type of team. They gave up 190 yards passing, 160 yards rushing a game. We could exploit the run game with modest pass options. Lost convincingly to Rutgers, barely beat Howard 23-20, lost to Duke and Penn St as they should have, lost low scoring games to Neb and Iowa, but won their last three against Wisconsin, Purdue, and Ill (45-43). Alternated Losses and Wins until winning the last 3. They don’t score that much (23 pts a game), but that’s kind of typical for middle B1G teams.
