| | | NORTHWESTERN: The Wildcats' first bowl win since 1948 capped off a school-record-tying 10 wins, which could have been an even dozen (1-point loss to Nebraska, OT loss at Michigan). They did so with a run-heavy, zone-read offense (226 rush YPG, 19th in FBS). Although three starting O-linemen left, all skill-position starters return, most notably QB Kain Colter (872 pass yds, 8 TD, 4 INT; 894 rush yds, 12 TD) and RB Venric Mark (1,366 rush yds, 12 TD). QB Trevor Siemian (1,312 pass yds, 6 TD, 3 INT) is the better passer in the two-QB system. WR Christian Jones (412 rec. yds, 2 TD) leads an underwhelming receiving corps. The defense held eight opponents to 20 points or less last year and had 29 takeaways (T-20th in FBS). DE Tyler Scott (9 sacks, 12.5 TFL) is nearly unblockable and LB Chi Chi Ariguzo (91 tackles) had a hand in six forced turnovers. CB Nick VanHoose (3 INT) is an absolute blanket. | | ILLINOIS: Not only were the Illini 0-8 in Big Ten play under first-year coach Tim Beckham, but they lost by an average score of 35-12. The offense finished third-worst in the nation in both points (16.7 PPG) and yards (297 YPG). Illinois ditched the two-OC system and brought in new OC Bill Cubit whose offense will force QB Nathan Scheelhaase (246 pass attempts, 4 TD, 8 INT) to get the ball out quickly. WR Ryan Lankford (469 rec. yds, 5 TD) leads an unproven receiving corps, but Illinois has two capable ball carriers in RBs Donovonn Young (571 rush yds, 3 TD) and Josh Ferguson (312 rush yds). The pass defense allowed just 194 YPG (19th in FBS), but mostly because teams ran all over Illinois (194 YPG, 97th in FBS). Most of the D-Line and secondary are gone -- three to the NFL -- putting more pressure on LBs Mason Monheim (86 tackles) and Jonathan Brown (9.5 TFL) to be all over the field. |
