So Fitz is right where he left off at the start of this decade, glad he's not our problem anymore

Bro y'all almost lost to our 2nd string defense, getting lucky to recover both fumbles. I think Fitz did an incredible job today.

If we're in a position to blow a game against a ranked opponent down our top 3 corners and LBs I think I will take it.

Since when are y'all too good for being competitive with teams that are better than you?

It gets tiring after a while. And a small school like northwestern should not be considered better than a large state school like Michigan state
