THE GOOD: Clayton Thorson. In his final game, Thorson delivered a masterpiece. He made countless plays to lead Northwestern back. Every time Northwestern needed a big play, they turned to Thorson, and he delivered every single time. It was a fitting end to a career in which Thorson always stepped up when he needed to in order to help his team win.
THE BAD: Start. Northwestern started extremely poorly. They were slow and sloppy across the board, and dug themselves a huge hole. This is something Northwestern will need to work on in the future before it becomes a serious issue that hurts them.
THE UGLY: Blocking. Northwestern struggled to open running lanes and protect the passer. Northwestern was forced to go to quick passes in order to combat the pass rush that could not be picked up by the offensive line. The offensive line has consistently been a problem for Northwestern, and something they will need to rectify in the future.
