Northwestern, 27, Purdue, 21.
W!
This team needed a win to salvage a season that started out strong but was quickly doing its best Hindenberg impression. Somehow, we managed to make it close despite having awesome field position and FORCING SIX TURNOVERS, but, man, we pulled it out, and that's all that matters.
We'll talk later. Big thanks to everybody who stopped by in the comments section, hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I did, let's do it again when we hit the road in two weeks.

woo w!
ok the specific callout = yay registering. i hope you’re happy rodger sherman.
So we played well for 2.5 quarters. maybe we can double that for the rest of the season? 5 quarters per week anyone?
fan of the 5 turnovers we forced.
yeah, that was creepy on my part, wasn't it?
i was worried nobody would stop by to comment, so i figured i’d call out specific people. luckily, it didn’t turn out that way, so, sorry for the specific callout.

great win for your team
i almost always pull and bet for the underdogs. since the big ten has 15 games where there is a trophy involved does northwestern have any matchup in the big ten that there is a local trophy involved. something like the paul bunyon axe between the badgers and gophers? just wondering.

Trophies
We had the Sweet Sioux Tomahawk, but that was deemed Not PC. Here’s the history of the passing of the SST: http://neveradmo.blogspot.com/search?q=sweet+sioux
They picked (I think) the Land of Lincoln (bleh) to replace it
