    Matt Shelton’s takeaways from NU-Oregon

    As I recall, we had such trouble tackling in the first game against SDSU that we were actually happy to have the week two bye so that we would have a chance to do remedial work on the fundementals of tackling.

    RU @ NU Prediction Thread

    Interesting, had you combined the high of the high (NU 40) and the low of the low (RU 13) you would have had the winning prognostication.

    RU @ NU Prediction Thread

    Make it stop!!! The trio of games, of which you write, has now expanded to a quintet with Minny and ILL joining the mix. This will certainly be an interesting month ahead.

    NU @ MSU Prediction Thread

    While I have no doubt that we are a legit top 25 team, and actually ranked much too low considering our body of work thus far, this is really going to be a tough one to win. I see it as a battle between the bend but don't break defenses. We have had trouble on the road, we sure have our share...

    Northwestern 9.5 favorite over Mich State

    I'm just concerned about the X factor... the emotions involved in this game. Also worried about injuries, ie. Houser's broken hand against MSU. The other two. although challenging, especially Oregon on Pacific time, I don't fear as much as MSU. I could obviously be wrong.

    Cats roll over Ball State, 45-14, in uninspiring rout

    Perhaps they are less scary because we are very good as well. I will be unhappy if we have more than one more loss and looking to up the ante.

    If they keep on improving like they have, 6 at a minimum.

    Bowl projections showing up ...

    If I recall corectly, I think the name of that tune was, "We're Going to Try to Eject as Many Players as We Can."

    Um we gotta be ranked after this right?

    In the Cats defense, I wonder how many of the teams ranked above us, undefeated or 1 loss, played the likes of an Indiana, and took them to the wire, no less. Some of the higher ranked teams, perhaps. Maybe I'm in over my head, but I truly don't think that even some very highly ranked teams...
