With Saturday’s 22-13 victory over Boston College, Northwestern has won all three of its games this season — each in a different way, and all in close calls.
The Wildcats needed a fourth-quarter comeback against Syracuse and a couple of key turnovers against Vanderbilt to win their first two games. But on Saturday, the Cats used their up-tempo offense to run the ball down Boston College’s throats and control the clock.
NU’s offense had its way with the Eagles’ defense, racking up 560 yards on 100 plays. The Cats’ five trips to the red zone, however, only resulted in four field goals and a fumble. Still, the defense made crucial stops to preserve the win over the Eagles.
