At this point, I'm just trying to keep this thread at the top of the heap so OK4P gets to view it when he comes in.
Since Northwestern hasn't won a bowl game since 1949 and the Cubs haven't won a World Series since 1908, I'm thinking the futility is on par. Considering Northwestern (in it's bowl game) isn't playing the best another league has to offer, winning should be considerably easier. Yet the inability to get the monkey off their back continues year after year.
Can you imagine going 62 years without winning a bowl game in your football program. I think this monkey is so big, NW just starts peeing down their legs in pregame warm ups.
I think he's just in denial...so don't be too hard on him. He loves his Cats with all his might. So much that he forgets how every quasi successful season ends...with the bowl debacle and meltdown. It's a part of his memory he dare not go...it's where the monsters and ghoblins of reality are.
One day Ok4P will be able to say, "Northwestern Wildcats, Meineke Car Bowl Champions", and this may be the year. Oooh, the suspense is killing me.
Northwestern is in a pro market. Not a lot of people care.
