[NU Sports] Beat Michigan State?

[Brad Wilson]

Alan, your faith warms my heart and the fan in me says right on!

The sportswriter in me looks at MSU's offensive talent, NU's inability to
contain Minnesota's much less talented offense, the penalty problem which is
showing signs of being chronic, the damned missed PATs and says ... well, I
won't repeat what it says.

I think NU has the potential to be a good team and surely has many parts
that are good now (Persa, Ebert, DiNardo, Davie, etc) but good, right now? I
would hesitate. On the other hand, 10-3 on the road, 27-7 in close games ...
faith perhaps? I hesitate.

However, Alan, I will trust in your faith!

Pound Perdoo! Sink Sparty!
