It is reasonable to project Northwestern to be 3-0 heading into its first Big Ten game on Sept. 27 against Penn State. The Wildcats' first non-conference opponent is Cal, which went 1-11 last season and was picked by media to finish last in the Pac-12 North. The week before the conference opener, Northwestern will face Western Illinois in a game that shouldn't be competitive past the first quarter. Sandwiched in between WIU and Cal is a team I think we should be paying more attention to.

It's hard to say because we don't know what to expect out of NIU just yet either

I think we're expected to be a little tougher than the Leathernecks, though.

Nice research from the writer on this one.
