Northwestern football has them all doing the one thing they don't want to be doing and that is talking about Northwestern football for an extra week. The Wildcats did this by remaining standing atop a Big Ten West where every team poisoned itself, by playing a brand of ugly, unwatchable football, and scoring very close to the minimum number of points needed to do so. They are 8-4, lost every single non-conference game including one to a four-win Akron team that had literally never beaten a Big Ten Opponent, and sported a losing record at home. SBNation calls them the "lowest-rated power five team to ever win a division championship.
