[NU Sports] NU Sports News Digest 10/26

Wed Oct 26 17:25:38 CDT 2005

The margin of victory was the largest for Northwestern in a Big Ten game
away from home since in a 41-0 win at Wisconsin on Nov. 6, 1943. 

----What have been other occasions where we have really whupped a B10 team
on the road in recent memory (terrible Illini teams do not count)?
I can remember an Iowa game in the barnett era, but other than that.....
