Northwestern is back in the win column! The 'Cats overcame a never-say-die Purdue team and a number of self-inflicted mistakes to get their fourth win of the season and Zach is back to break down it all down. He begins with an overview of the game (1:29) before talking about how the running back pair of Joseph Himon II and Cam Porter revitalized NU's offense (6:45). Next, he discusses how Northwestern was able to get the most out of Jack Lausch (12:07) before critiquing some of the game management decisions made by the coaching staff (17:44). Finally, Zach touches on how the defense bent but didn't break against a surprising Purdue passing attack (22:28) and talks about how the game sets up NU for a difficult three-game stretch to end the year.
