Yeah, I didn’t have Northwestern absolutely torching Penn State on my CFB bingo card this year 😆

Also, that last interception was insane!

Most since 2003. I went to Northwestern in 2016. In 2003, I think it's fair to say even if I was in the room with a football game, I had never watched one

Crazy what happens when you take a mid Iowa State roster and transport it to the Big 10 lol

The Cats rushed for FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN yards against a nearly-ranked B1G opponent… what the fuck man

Calling us “nearly ranked” is being very generous, looking more and more like preseason poll inertia from us usually being good. Would be shocked if we’re getting any votes by the end of October.

I thought we’d lose. I didn’t think we’d lose lose.

Rocco Becht is an atrocious QB

Legitimately in the conversation for the worst starter in the B1G

The 413 rushing yards is the part that got me. That wasn’t a weird bounce or one explosive play — Northwestern just kept getting downhill all night.
