Northwestern fans got one year of Peyton Ramsey under center, and he provided the stability the position desperately needed. Whose passes will we be charting this coming fall? We’ll see. But for now, one last ride of Peyton’s Passes.
No. 10 Northwestern (7-2, 6-2 B1G) ended the season on a resilient note with a 35-19 victory over Auburn (6-5, 6-4 SEC) to capture the 2021 Vrbo Citrus Bowl. Unlike many Wildcat victories, Peyton Ramsey was the catalyst of success, as Cam Porter and Evan Hull had trouble on the ground.
The conditions in Florida lent themselves well to the passing game: clear skies and light wind meant Ramsey could air the ball out as much as he liked.
