ST. PAUL, Minn. – All eyes were on Reynolds Field Saturday, as the University of Northwestern Football team looked to avenge a loss to the University of Minnesota Morris in the 2023 win-and-in regular season finale. The result gave Morris the UMAC championship, ended Northwestern's season, and set the table for Saturday's battle, which was dubbed the UMAC Game of the Week. Using a run-heavy and defensive-minded gameplan that would make Jim Harbaugh blush, the Eagles completed the task, taking down the Cougars 44-13 to move into sole-possession of first place in the conference.
