Getting to know the Northwestern Wildcats

A key Big Ten West divisional match-up awaits the No. 20 Wisconsin Badgers on Saturday when they take on Pat Fitzgerald and the Northwestern Wildcats in Evanston.

Wisconsin (5-2, 3-1 Big Ten) last won at Ryan Field back in 2016, a 21-7 win over the Wildcats that broke a four-game losing streak in Evanston that dated back to 2003.

This time around, both squads continue to battle to stay in solid position for the West division title.

Northwestern (4-3, 4-1) comes off an unimpressive 18-15 win on the road at Rutgers last Saturday where it only gained 278 yards on 81 plays.
