Miami (OH) and Northwestern have the same record at 1-2, but I doubt their fans are equally satisfied or disappointed with their seasons. While the RedHawks unsurprisingly lost to strong Kentucky and Cincinnati sides, the Wildcats lost to two seemingly weaker opponents in Duke and Southern Illinois. At this point in the season, Wildcat fans at least expected to be 2-1, but alas, that’s not the case. If Northwestern loses a third straight non-conference game this week, the rest of the season will certainly look to be a slow, difficult treck. A victory is the goal this week, but that will rely on stellar performances from the Wildcats’ key players.
