It's trap game time! Northwestern is a ridiculously dangerous opponent that can cause tons of havoc in the Big Ten. Let's just hope that havoc comes after today, when they are in our win column and can do us no further harm by beating us.I have no problem with them springing an upset on some higher rated team once we beat them on their home floor and it becomes a good true road victory.
