I’ll be eager to see how Northwestern’s reeling secondary handles Indiana’s spread offense—the second-ranked passing offense in the Big Ten. But at the same time, Northwestern’s offense is on fire. They’ve scored 92 points in two games, and while I don’t expect Northwestern to gain almost five football fields of yardage like they did last week, I expect the Wildcats to post 30+ points again behind what has suddenly become a truly balanced offense (25+ carries from Jackson, 200+ yards from Thorson). That’ll be just enough against a solid Indiana team.
After picking Northwestern to lose to Iowa and Michigan State, I’ve learned my lesson.
