The Northwestern Wildcats had a great season last year, but this is not the type of program that just reloads. This is a year of after Covid and a free year of eligibility, and many teams have come back this season with a lot of experienced starters. That isn't the case for Northwestern as they have returned just eight starters. They also may have to suit up for this one without starting QB Andrew Marty, who left last game with an upper-body injury. The Cats struggled against FCS opponent Indiana State, where they generated just 275 yards of offense, and they turned the ball over five times in their last game. Frank Solich has a lot of returning starters, but his team has struggled to an 0-3 record on the season. I don't trust Northwestern, especially with a questionable QB and an offense that has struggled all season. Make the play on Ohio.
