In a season full of false hope, today might have been the new low.
The Northwestern Wildcats (3-7, 1-6 B1G) traveled to Madison this Saturday, though they might have been better staying at home, as the ‘Cats got run over by the No. 18 Wisconsin Badgers (7-3, 5-2 B1G) to the tune of 35-7.
The first two plays of the game had Wisconsin nearing midfield, but the NU defense quickly assuaged those concerns when star defensive end Adetomiwa Adebawore made a big tackle on running back Braelon Allen, forcing a punt from the Badgers early on.
