After an unsurprising loss at the hands of the Oregon Ducks, it's still difficult to truly judge this Northwestern Wildcats team. The 'Cats have now played Tulane and Oregon, both squarely better teams that took care of business, and Western Illinois out of the FCS. There will be a lot to glean from coming games against more evenly matched Big Ten squads. A game like today's against a team that hung 69 points on Oklahoma State the week prior is sort of unfair to over-analyze.
