After Minny, playing at home, bludgeoned (409 yards rushing) Nebraska the previous week, many said that Nebraska had quit. Apparently not. Minnesota should have been been feeling pretty good about themselves, even though they were traveling to Evanston to play a Northwestern team that had won 5 straight. A pretty good Northwestern team. How many would have predicted a final score of Northwestern 39 - Minnesota zilch? Northwestern was a 7 point home favorite. Love it.
