Northwestern (2-2, 1-1 Big Ten) scored two touchdowns early in the fourth quarter to pull within seven. The Wildcats tied it in the closing seconds of regulation when Henning caught an 11-yard TD, and came away with their second win in three games after losing 12 in a row.
Just noticed that as it was late one last nite so didn't see scores - or much else for that matter. So another white knuckler in the BIG.

I didn't watch last night's game, but I'm looking at the stat sheet trying to figure out what's wrong and I'm getting more and more torqued off.

3/13 on third down. Unacceptable.
The tackling has been hideous.
Pj ran a true freshman RB into the ground last night (he's had 86 carries in the last 3 games before the trainers pulled him in OT
Yet another screw up in the kicking game
Allowing an impotent passing game to fry the back 7

The most consistent thing about PJ'S Gopher teams are the hideous losses. This seems like the 8th or 9th loss he's had as a double digit favorite.

The only good thing about this goat rodeo is that it wasn't at home.

ND is a damn good team, was really impressed with Ohio State going in there and winning on the road, at night. McCord didn't play particularly great, and he really should've thrown the game losing INT on the final drive if not for that ND DB having butterfingers- but he never flinched and didn't turtle after dodging that bullet- and he made some clutch throws to put them in position to score the go ahead TD.

That final game in Nov is gonna be a battle.

Yeah- that was not an easy accomplishment. Tough team in a tough environment. 

He damn near throw a pick.  But then again he threw a beautiful TD ball to Egbuka that he dropped. Plus- their best drive ( besides the game winner) they shot themselves in the foot with a stupid personal foul by Fryar- after a beautiful throw by MCCord to get a first down in the red zone.  Heck of a game though

It's interesting to me to watch how far a team like ND can drop in the rankings for such a last second close loss.

I figure they are really close to as good as Ohio State.

Yup it's a good place to watch a football game-- unless you're wearing burnt orange, of course. :)
