Around SBN: College Football Preseason Top 25 Rankings

Northwestern Beats Michigan St.

by JRose on Jan 21, 2009 7:40 PM CST Comment 5 comments

Nice win tonight by NU over MSU in East Lansing. This certainly makes the Golden Gophers most recent loss look a lot more legitimate. Northwestern was clearly not as bad as their Big 10 record indicated prior to the Minnesota game, but Northwestern beating a top ten team like the Spartans certainly doesn't hurt the Gophers, especially if they're able to beat Purdue tomorrow in The Barn. This NU victory just makes the Purdue all the more important for Tubby's squad. Let's go Gophers!

Does this mean the Michigan State game was our worst loss of the season?

Yep

Not only are they worse than Northwestern, but that was at home to boot.

I knew

Northwestern would pull some upsets, I just didn’t think it would be at Michigan St.

I agree

NW’s pre Big 10 RPI was top 10 in the nation. I believe that they are way better than their first 4 Big 10 games showed…

And...

they really should have beaten Purdue. They could easily be 3-3 in the conference with wins over Michigan State, Minnesota, and Purdue. That would have been impressive.
