Nightmarish offseason, trip to ICU can't stop Northwestern's Matt Frazier

When Northwestern closed out its 30-28 victory over Nebraska two weeks ago, Matt Frazier was right in the middle of things.

The senior offensive guard helped open some gaping holes for running back Justin Jackson as the Wildcats piled up first downs on the game’s final drive. Frazier celebrated after he induced an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Nebraska’s Maliek Collins in the final 90 seconds, effectively sealing the outcome.

“We take a lot of pride in finishing and playing through the whistle,” Frazier said. “So that was good to see.”

It’s also amazing to see Frazier playing a key role for the 6-2 Wildcats.
