It’s time machine season at SB Nation’s college blogs. In 2007, the college football world melted down. Rutgers truly deserved its “s”, Kansas was a BCS contender, Michigan lost to Appalachian State, and many, many other ridiculous things happened. It may have been the best college football season ever.
However, there was no chaos at Northwestern. There was moderate hype for the season with star running back Tyrell Sutton entering his junior year. With the program still recovering from the passing of Randy Walker and Pat Fitzgerald in his second year, Northwestern went 6-6 and 3-5 in the Big Ten.
