This weekend marks, potentially, the end of the 2018 Illinois football season, barring a modern miracle. Inside NU, our SBN counterpart covering Northwestern, was gracious enough to answer a few questions in preparation for the Illini vs. Northwestern rivalry game.
TCR: Clayton Thorson is averaging over 230 ypg through the air witha 1 to 1 touchdown to interception ratio. How would you compare him to his Big Ten counterparts?
Inside NU: The funny thing about Thorson averaging 230 yards per game is that he’s only thrown for between 200 and 350 yards in a game once this season.
