After a win over Minnesota that pushed their season record to 5-0, the Northwestern Wildcats have many reasons to be happy.

They beat the Gophers soundly, 27-0 behind another solid performance from star running back Justin Jackson who went over 100 yards for the tenth time in twelve games. The super sophomore had 120 yards on 20 carries against a stout Gophers defense.
