Northwestern football returns this week for its home opener, where it will take on Western Illinois at Northwestern Medicine Field at Martin Stadium. The Wildcats look to bounce back from a 23-3 loss against Tulane last week, and this game is the perfect opportunity for them to. Playing against the FCS Leathernecks, who are coming off a blowout 52-3 loss to Illinois, Friday night’s game should be the easiest on NU’s schedule.
