rico Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 33 minutes ago, IUFLA said: Doesn't appear so from what I've seen...Close though...On January 10th, 1959 they were ranked 8th and we were unranked when we beat them 76-69 in Welsh-Ryan...2 days later when the polls came out, they were 11th and we were 19th... In 2017 we both had been in the top 25, but not when we played each other (twice)... I was amazed to find out Northwestern has only been ranked 16x(weeks) in their entire history. They also have never been ranked in the final poll. That might change this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) One of the cool things about Welsh-Ryan was, there was a concession stand at the South end (if I remember right) that was right outside where the players came out of the locker room...Met Tom Coverdale there, and thanked him for his time as a Hoosier. I think it was 2005, because Fife passed on the way back into the locker room, and he was a GA I think...and he and Coverdale talked for a minute. Coverdale and Bracey Wright nodded to each other, and Bracey said, "Big Red" but they didn't seem like besties Edited February 13, 2023 by IUFLA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very modern looking, compared to the pics we see in this thread. Looks way better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 1-0 start to our toughest 5 game stretch of the year. It's not that I don't think we can win all 5 it's just not likely. I will take 3-2 for sure. After our home game vs Illinois.....this at Northwestern game seems to be the one where we have the best chance of stealing one on the road. Kopp with his final return to Evanston. Bates and Trey need to step up. I expect Coach to extend the bench a little bit if he can. 3 point D and reduce turnovers. Wish it was Wednesday at 9 already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why NW is classy. The NW marketing team politely asked this lady to stop and she obliged.
