I’ve never been happier to not play Northwestern this year.

I have no reason to believe it wouldn't go to OT with us committing a game ending turnover like every other game against NW we've had

(God I hate playing them)

I saw ISU beat them in Evanston. I also sat through the Frostbite bowl NW 43-Notre Dame 40 (OT) in 2014. They always play up or down to their opponent

I think we've had like what, one game against them in the last ten years that wasn't a fucking heart attack?

Yep, every game has been close. Except for that one year when we had the best 3-9 team of all time and we trounced them
