Northwestern is feeling good after another win over Illinois!

On Saturday, Pat Fitzgerald and the Wildcats put the finishing touches on their regular season with a dominant rushing performance against the Illini. Freshman Cam Porter was leaned on heavily as Northwestern rolled to more than 400 yards on the ground in another rivalry win.

That victory made it six straight wins over Illinois for Pat Fitzgerald and company. Their last loss in the rivalry series game in 2014, two years before Lovie Smith arrived in Champaign.

After the win, Northwestern Football put out a beautiful troll job on social media. Check it out:

Moving forward, Northwestern has a shot to add to its 6-1 record. The Wildcats face Ohio State next Saturday for a shot at the B1G Championship.

A win would give Northwestern a Rose Bowl berth just one season after finishing 3-9. Regardless of how they finish, the Wildcats should be commended for an incredible rebound season.
