[QUOTE="Madison Grant, post: 339953, member: 823"] Like I said, for some reason it is in the brains of many commenting here that Northwestern is the historical team that was ridiculously awful for decades. Northwestern is a solid team, regardless of the Nevada game which they wound up winning by 11 points anyway. They went to a bowl game last year and beat Pitt. They won 10 games two years ago, and are returning their top offensive weapons. For some reason, people remember the occasional close game the Jax States, Georgia Southerns and App States of the world play against somebody (and the once in a blue moon time they actually do pull off the upset). Then all these ridiculous statements come out like, "Georgia Southern might be the best team in the state." Just no. Go look up the schedules for yourself on ESPN.com. For every 27-20 OT game these teams play someone, they play 3 or 4 games against power 5 teams like Saturday where they get beat 37-10ish or worse. Yes, the running back is a former 5 star from Auburn. WR is a former 3 star from Wisconsin, and OG was a JUCO kid who went to Baylor before all their trouble. The rest of guys, however, are on an FCS team because they got no FBS offers. Think about that, dude. Not only did Auburn and Bama not want them, but UAB, Vandy, Wake, Southern Miss, and probably even South Alabama and Troy passed on them. They would be walk-ons at even weak power 5 schools. The QB for JSU was what you'd expect from an FCS team, two picks and a fumble. [/QUOTE]
