No. 17 Northwestern had arguably the most impressive résumé of anyone in the Big Ten, with key wins over Stanford and Duke in the first three weeks.
But that didn't mean that things would be easy for the Wildcats against Ball State in Week 4. Far from it. The Cardinals scored more points against Northwestern's defense -- which came into the day leading the FBS in points allowed -- than Stanford and Duke combined, and they left seven points on the board with two missed field goals and a botched extra point.
