Well This Is Bad

Northwestern football is not particularly fun at the moment. While the 'Cats managed to hang around in all of their losses to the point where it seemed possible that they could, with some luck, managed to have actually won some of those games, that did not happen against Wisconsin. They got completely blown out. They got whomped. The offense faltered. The defense made Wisconsin's usually plodding and inept passing game look like the Greatest Show on Turf. At one point, Northwestern was down four touchdowns at the end of the half and Fitzgerald made the ludicrously unserious decision to kick a field goal from the three yardline that missed in every sense other than serving as a metaphor for Northwestern's football season.
