It wasn't pretty. From the 84 yards worth of penalties in the first half for Northwestern to the still struggling running game, the Wildcats were able to hold off a high scoring Central Michigan team 30-25 Saturday at Ryan Field.
Central Michigan had scored with 1:11 to play in the game but the two-point conversion failed. When NU got the ball back, quarterback Dan Persa took a knee and let the clock run down to preserve the win.
