Second Half Defense

[Jonny2TheP]

Minus Hartage, Thompson, and Hall...and still put together a flawless half of defense. Couldn’t have been better. I tip my hat to an incredible 30 minute performance that was the catalyst for a fun victory.

Best 30 minutes of defensive football I have ever seen from a Northwestern team. Really incredible performance without three of our top starters.

And Pace and Brown will be around for a while.

The growth of Earnest Brown has been what you hoped it would when he signed. Bigger, stronger, dominant at times. Was getting double teams most of the 2nd half and still drew a hold and had many pressures.

Going to bet he starts opposite Gaz next year.

Didn't even seem like we missed Thompson or Hall much, which is saying something! We definitely missed Hartage, tho, imo.

We did miss them in the first half. Don't know what happened in the second half but everything went our way.

Long Live Mike Hankwitz. You know our D is going to be stout with him, regardless of who we have out there on the field. Outstanding performance ever since he came to NU.
