The ‘Cats pulled out a much-needed, feel-good victory at home last Saturday against UTEP. It was a win they needed to have in order to avoid another train wreck of a season, and they succeeded in emphatic fashion, downing the Miners 38-7.
Ben Bryant still wasn’t awesome under center, but he showed some promise and led Northwestern to a win. The rushing attack was also much-improved, which had a tremendous impact. Overall, it probably couldn’t have gone better for head coach David Braun and his team.
Now, we turn our attention to a matchup that has given NU fits in recent years.
