Northwestern is going to be facing one of its toughest challenges yet this weekend. No. 2 Ohio State is coming to Evanston to take on the Wildcats.

Northwestern will be wearing black helmets with black jerseys and purple pants. The team announced the news from its social media account.

Pat Fitzgerald has Northwestern off to rough start at 1-7 through eight games. Northwestern is on the verge of missing the bowl season for the second year in a row. The Wildcats last played in the 2020 Citrus Bowl.

Ohio State and Northwestern last met in the 2020 B1G Championship game. In order to find the last time that Northwestern has beaten Ohio State, you’ll need to go back to 2004.

The Buckeyes are heading into Saturday’s game with a nine-game win streak against the Wildcats. In the all-time series, Ohio State is 64-1-14.

Northwestern has not won a game since the season opener with Nebraska in Dublin, Ireland. Kickoff from Ryan Field is set for noon ET on ABC.
