We knew it was going to be a tall task to stay with Ohio State last weekend at Wrigley Field, but Northwestern really turned some heads with the way the offense came together in the first half. Now, Wildcat Nation turns their eyes to Ann Arbor, Michigan as not only the Football team plays this weekend, but Field Hockey is playing in the NCAA Final …

As the Cats get set to head into the Friendly Confines to take on Ohio State, we take a moment to reflect on the season thus far and prepare for the final stretch. We also have Field Hockey going into the NCAA Tournament as the #2 seed and Basketball getting underway with a couple early non-conference games.…

While it was not the prettiest game ever, you can't take anything away from the fact that the Cats went on the road and got a conference win. We now take stock of the football team going into their last 3 games of the season, while also celebrating the undefeated regular season of the Field Hockey team and the huge season opening win by the Men's B…

Another abysmal offensive performance now leaves the Cats season teetering on the brink. With Purdue also having an epically bad season defensively, this Saturday's matchup features the Resistible Force vs. the Movable Object.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

There's really no way to sugar coat this one, this was a bad game for the Cats across the board. Now with a trip to Iowa City coming up this weekend, Northwestern will look to find some consistency on offense and see if they can put a whole 60 minutes together.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

10 point underdog? Sure. Let's go with that. Last Friday night, Northwestern made a statement with a huge win on the road against Maryland. Now the Cats come home for their final game at Martin Stadium this year against Wisconsin.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

While the result certainly wasn't what we were hoping for, there really are a lot of positives to take out of this game. The offense looked so much better than they did against Washington. Also, you've got to tip your cap to a very talented Indiana squad. Now, the Cats have a short week before they head out to the DMV to take on Maryland.…

After a week off, the Cats return home to take on a white hot Indiana Hoosier squad who comes in with their best start since the 1960s.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

For Northwestern's first ever conference matchup with Washington, almost nothing went right. The offense was stymied at every opportunity, especially inside the Husky 5 yard line. Now, the Cats have a bye week to rest up and prepare for a white hot Indiana squad next week.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

After a shaky start, we saw the emergence of Jack Lausch as he led the Cats to a big win over EIU. Lausch had a perfect 11/11 second half throwing and we saw glimpses of what a fully armed and operational Zach Lujan offense can look like. The next task, take the show on the road out to Seattle to start conference play against Washington.…

It was a dark and stormy night. It was a sloppy game all around and the level of play sure wasn't helped by the gale-force winds coming in off the lake. At the end of the day, Duke came away with the double overtime win leaving us all with a number of questions moving forward.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

At long last we come to the end of our Summer Previews, this time with a look at our in-state rival, Illinois. This is a team that struggled on both sides of the ball last year, but will consistency at QB and OC bring them some success?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

The defending National Champions underwent a number of changes coming off 2023. But unlike some other schools with changes, Michigan promoted from within. Will they have enough to compete for the crown again?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

Coming into 2024 as the AP #2 team in the country, Ohio State has a National Championship square in their sights. But a 3 game losing streak to Michigan has the Buckeyes seeing red. Will their smothering Defense and a Chip Kelly led Offense put them back on top the Big Ten?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

It was a tough first year in West Lafayette for Ryan Walters as he took the reins at Purdue. But with so many returning players, will some consistency help them improve over last season?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

After yet another abysmal offensive season, Iowa finally cut ties with Brian Ferentz and brought in Tim Lester as their new OC. The Hawkeye D again looks like a behemoth that will dominate the conference. Will their O bring anything to the table this season?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

In year 1 under Luke Fickell Wisconsin underwent a drastic change offensively, switching to an Air Raid system. It did not go as well for them as they'd have liked, winding up 7-6. Will year 2 go better for the Badgers?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

So Maryland has some good things and some bad things going for/against them this year. Taulia is gone. That's bad. They're not in the Big Ten East anymore. That's good. They have to travel out to Oregon. That's bad. They skip Michigan and Ohio State this year. That's good. What will that mean for this season? That's what we're gonna find out.…

Coming off a rough stretch of seasons since their magical 2020 run, Indiana made what many people feel to be the coaching hire of the season. Curt Cignetti comes to Bloomington with a bunch of his staff from James Madison, but will he be able to turn things around in year 1?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

Washington played for the National Championship last year, but in reality, pretty much the only thing that is the same for them as last year may be the uniforms. All new conference, head coach, their entire starting lineup, etc. It'll definitely be interesting to watch them adjust to their new reality.…

This is not the same Duke team that we have seen in years past. Lots of changes on both sides of the ball and a big change at Head Coach. Mike Elko is off to Texas A&M and... wait... is that Manny Diaz' music?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

We start our look at the 2024 Northwestern schedule with our opener on the lake. Miami Ohio is coming off a MAC championship last year and will be looking to potentially make a run at the Group of 5 spot in the playoff this year.

For the first time in what feels like an eternity, Northwestern fans look at the schedule and will say "Au Revoir Gopher." PJ Fleck's squad has been solid in recent seasons, but how will they adjust to the new non-divisional reality that the Big Ten now finds itself in?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

For years we have been force fed the narrative that Nebraska was back only to laugh with glee as they struggled through another .500 season. With Matt Rhule in his second season and an incoming phenom at QB, could this be the year those pundits could be right? Hope not.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

Penn St. is such an interesting team this year. They lose so much off the defensive side, including their DC, but the additions they brought in are also phenomenal. Coupled with one of the top returning QBs in the conference, Penn St. could be poised to challenge for a trip to Indy.West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

Rutgers was in the middle of the pack last year in the Big Ten East. But with a potential upgrade at QB and a favorable schedule, could the Scarlet Knights find their way up the standings in 2024?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

Michigan St. saw the huge influx from the Pac-12 and figured they'd get a piece of that action, hiring former Oregon State HC Jonathan Smith to try to get Sparty out of the basement of the Big Ten. How will it go in his first season in East Lansing?West Lot Pirates tarafından oluşturuldu

We continue our Summer Previews with the final former PAC-12 team Northwestern does not play this season. Honestly, that's a good thing. The Ducks fly their way into the Big Ten this year with their sights set to the top of the conference. With a solid D and a stud coming in at QB, there's no reason to think Oregon won't be in the mix for Indy come…

It's a new era for UCLA. New conference, new coach, new membership to the airlines' Diamond Platinum club.

We're back! Our "season premiere" episode takes us into our Summer Previews. We kick things off with a look at one of the newest members into the Big Ten, the USC Trojans.

The Cats finished off the regular season in style as they trounced Minnesota on Senior night. Boo Buie ended his Welsh-Ryan Arena tenure in perfect fashion, draining a 3-pointer from up top, whipping up the sold-out crowd into a frenzy. Now, with a double-bye in hand, they head up to Minneapolis for the Big Ten Tournament and get ready for their se…

After an epic win on the road at Maryland, the Cats came home to take on the red hot Iowa Hawkeyes. It seems the injury bug has bitten them again as they played without Ryan Langborg again and also had Matt Nicholson go down with a lower body injury.
