In case you didn’t know, it’s been a long, long time since Northwestern beat the Ohio State Buckeyes in Columbus, Ohio. It was November 13, 1971, to be exact, when the Wildcats stormed into The Shoe and won 14-10 on the shoulders of running backs Al Robinson, who ran for 109 yards on 30 carries, and Randy Anderson, who ran for 70 yards and three touchdowns on 20 carries. Oh yeah, and current defensive backs coach Jerry Brown was a second-team All-Big Ten performer.
