Just a couple of thoughts. It was interesting to see Van Poppel play. That's his 3rd game, I believe. I was surprised to see him, but they must have made the decision that they needed to play him in this game against a good running offense to shut them down and get this win.
James Williams is an awesome story. I don't know what happened to his family, but the interview after the game was pretty intense. It's impressive what he has done. He's a sophomore and is the best pass rusher we've had since Randy Gregory. He's going to make serious waves by the time he's done at NU.
No Carter Nelson was a surprise. No Gabe Ervin, that I saw. I actually liked the RB rotation, for the most part, for just about the first time all season.
Special Teams need a new leader. The punt protection team and field goal team are bad. The coverage teams are average. Return teams are very average. Foley needs to go.
