OT: Northwestern

Currently on a three game skid. Who saw this coming? Colter and Mark have missed time for injuries, which have not helped. The question will be how healthy will they be when Michigan plays them.

A combo of injuries and poor depth and bad coaching. They are out of contention but will still be playing for better bowl game.

Interesting you list coaching. I have not caught their past two games. I did catch the Ohio game. Fitz has been held in high regard by many for several years.

Just thought it was a horrible game plan this weekend. 46 passes and 26 rushes. Its Minnesota, run on them.

Injuries have hurt them but I wasn't completely buying their hype earlier in the season after seeing Cal's freshman QB destroy their secondary. Their offense is impressive when healthy and firing on all cylinders but many teams should be able to score on them.

They will play better against Michigan because that's what teams always do, annoyingly enough.

Spread teams typically light up our defense.

The wheels have completely fallen off in Evantson.

I wasn't surprised in the slightest when they went to Madison and got stomped last week. They were coming off an extremely emotionally charged game in which they lost in disappointing fashion. I just knew they wouldn't be able to 'get up' for the UW game (sounds ironic, because that was a big game, but it's just how it goes sometimes).

This past loss is disturbing.
