Northwestern Football will play (at least) 12 games this season, but not all games are created equal. The Wildcats travel to the Big House and Camp Randall in Big Ten play but also host non-conference opponents like Eastern Illinois and Ball State. So which game on the schedule is the most important? Ian McCafferty and Josh Rosenblat debate.
Ian: Northwestern's most important game this season is coincidentally also its first one, home against Stanford. Now I don't love saying that a team's first game is its most important, but I can make an exception due to the quality of the opponent.
