If you can say one positive thing about the 2022 Northwestern football season is that it is mercifully over. The Wildcats are nursing a single win over Nebraska, they will have their worst season since 1989, and the program seems to have plummeted from the highs of a Big Ten West championship back to its miserable depths in only two years. On Saturday, they will have one more desperate attempt to salvage something from the season by prying the Hat from atop the bulbous, far side caricature skull of Bret Bielema and then retreat to whatever lair Pat Fitzgerald crawls into the offseason as he tries to figure out how much longer he can remain his imperial control over the football program while actively in the Rick Venturi Zone.
A Hat? In This Economy?
