We do control our own destiny

So, there is that
Our Offensive Coordinator lost this game for us! We need to get Evan Hull in space and also have Hillinski be more mobile in pocket! Both occurred in second half where we looked great on offense for a few drives!

We clearly beat PSU in second half!
 
The way the West is playing, it’ll just be a matter of who wins on the road and who gets a hot stretch. 3 wins in the next 4 games will pretty much wrap it up.

Per the latest lines, Wisconsin is a 9.5 point favorite and Illinois is a 3.5 point favorite at home.

If we can beat Wisconsin, I believe that will be the boost we need to beat Illinois, however cannot get demoralized by Iowa, Purdue, Maryland or Minnesota.
 
PSU is a weak 11th ranked team - their O-line is not very good, which along w/ the weather, helped make the Cats D look good (tho a couple of those hits were nasty).

Iowa's O-line stinks, so that'll even the playing field somewhat when the Cats face them.

NU will beat the Badgers this week. UW is demoralized and ripe for picking; win the TO battle and the Cats go to 2 and 1 in Conference.

Easier said than done. We are currently ranked 101 in turnover margin in D1, and ranked dead last in total turnovers.
