Northwestern vs. Illinois

THE GOOD: Defense. Northwestern's defense continued its dominance. They allowed one good drive, and absolutely nothing else after that. They even scored a touchdown, which made up fro the one they allowed.
THE BAD: Start. Northwestern started really slow. They allowed Illinois to march right down the field on their first drive of the game, and during the first quarter Illinois really dominated the game. Once the second quarter hit; however, Northwestern stepped it up and took control of the game.
THE UGLY: Passing game. For the second week in a row, Northwestern struggled to move the ball through the air. Thorson struggled with accuracy at times, but Northwestern was able to lean on the ground game. Northwestern will need to correct this before the bowl game.
