Hi guys, I went back and watched every Northwestern snap from last year’s game so you don’t have to put yourself through the abuse, and this is what I found out.
Base Formation: Ace (1 back), Spread
Base Personnel Package: 11 personnel

Yellow: Boundary Receiver
Green: Tight End
Blue: Slot Receiver
Red: Field Receiver
Northwestern runs a basic spread, primarily out of their 11 personnel package. This is similar to Purdue’s base formation and base personnel package.
