Ten games.
That’s how many Northwestern lost in a row at one point in the 2014-2015 season, the first for Chris Collins’s initial recruiting class. It started with a January 4th beatdown at the hands of Wisconsin, a team that later made the NCAA title game. It didn’t end until the Wildcats pulled out an overtime victory over Iowa on February 15th. The team went nearly six weeks without a win.
In that losing streak, the Wildcats had a five-game stretch with the following results: loss by seven at Michigan State in overtime, loss by five against Illinois, loss by two at Michigan, loss by two against Ohio State and loss by one at Maryland.
