With this game, I now can say that my undergrad alma mater Eastern Michigan would beat the Cats. This is really a sad day. The next week or two will be interesting in Evanston.

I like the continued effort that I see on the field. But Fitz need to blow up everything or, if he won't, he needs to be blown up himself. Let the $$ people at NU make it work but get rid of this shit.
Well... Michigan was clearly looking ahead in that game. They also sat nearly half their team to get them healthy for OSU. I expect a rematch will be ugly.
I think Purdue will take care of business and keep the state school out of Indy, so we can still claim the division titles. And we haven’t lost any big recruits to them since basically Rashard Mendenhall. But his point is not unfair …
I still will believe it when I see it. For the sake of Northwestern football, I pray there are changes. But I could certainly imagine Fitz doing nothing.
Bad. Even the Illini fans are leaving. I am still here. A glutton for punishment!
Keeping it under 50 would be a win. And Illinois isn't even that good.
And who knows who will / won’t transfer. This is as hopeless as I’ve been about NU football since the 80s.
If not for the 4 turnovers and some poor eye discipline on defense, this would be a much closer game.
Fitz is looking very disappointed. If now he has the cojones to turn this program upside down, there is a greater chance for a bright future. If not, next season could be even worse than this, and if so, how will he recruit at all? Looking forward to next week's press conference.
If 7 goes back into the game I will never watch another game Fitz coaches
Then Fitz becomes the laughingstock of the nation, and his team will be lost...we will have one more year of misery...but even NU will not stand for this much longer...
Purdue, the cradle of QBs.
Northwestern now, the graveyard of QBs
Northwestern now, the graveyard of QBs
This is a game out of the Dark Ages.
What will the admin do to address this fiasco of a program? It’s an embarrassment.

Jack Lausch is out there now,,,but they will not let him toss the ball, so we will not get another first down...
Finish game by Hull and Porter in wildcat. Feel for Freeman being put into a situation well beyond his capacities at this stage of his career.
There's no sugar coating how far the program fell this year.
This game is an encapsulation of the season.
This is a Dark Ages team. Even Fitz has to be able to see that. Can't point to 2018/2020 after a debacle like this year.
I have to believe a major shakeup is coming on Fitz's staff. There's no redeeming factor here to avoid calling this the worst year in the modern era by far.

Sad, stubborn Fitz. Made no changes after last season's 47-14 beating by Illannoys and now it's getting the same beating. Damn you Fitz.
