The 30-13 victory over Rice in Houston Saturday night was savored for only about a half hour, when Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald was asked in a post-game Q and A about the Wildcats' next game against Central Michigan at Ryan Field this coming Saturday.
"They're the most championship ready," Fitzgerald said. "This is an outstanding football program and I've had a chance to look at them a little bit and they are very athletic."
The Chippewas dismantled Eastern Michigan Saturday 52-14 and Paris Cotton ran for 209 yards and three touchdowns. Talk about a running game. NU's defense is going to have their work cut out for them if Cotton's performance against EMU is any indication.
