Another week in the books for the Irish and another game in the win column. Irish are 9-0 after a 31-21 victory over Northwestern. This game never should of been close to be honest. Watching the game, there were way too many self inflicted mistakes that could of cost the Irish, but they found a way to get it done on the road.
Defense was up and down for most of the game but really controlled the Wildcats when they had enough of them. Not having Tranquill for most of the night hurt a little, especially in the run game.
