Tristan Jung: Northwestern 31, Kentucky 15
Northwestern starts off strong for once, and Kentucky’s defense really suffers from losing Denzil Ware. Northwestern takes a solid 14-0 lead and then coasts in the second half. Justin Jackson runs for 170 yards. Kentucky randomly decided to go for a two-point conversion.
Will Ragatz: Northwestern 41, Kentucky 20
It worries me a bit that everyone thinks Northwestern is going to win this game, but then again, that’s kind of how we felt during the latter half of this 7-game win streak, and NU repeatedly took care of business against inferior competition.
