THE GOOD: Isaiah Bowser. For the third game in a row, Bowser ran with a purpose and was able to have great success. He has done a great job of taking advantage of his opportunity and has really changes Northwestern's offense for the better.
THE BAD: Pass rush. Northwestern generated almost no pass rush. This forced the secondary to cover for long periods of time and they could not maintain tight coverage for extended periods of time. This led to some big plays being given up through the air. Northwestern will need to generate pass rush in order for their defense to be effective in the future.
THE UGLY: Adjustments. Northwestern failed to adjust on defense. They continuously put their corners ten years off the line and were content to give up big plays on flat routes. They crashed down on the middle on run plays, but failed to account for the quarterback run on multiple occasions. Northwestern will need to make adjustments to what their opponent is doing in the future if they hope to have success.
