Northwestern releases injury report ahead of game vs. Iowa
Published:
One of the marquee matchups in the Big Ten this week is Iowa-Northwestern.
The Hawkeyes are 3-3 in Big Ten play, but host the Wildcats, who are at 5-1 and atop the Big Ten West division. Northwestern is in control of its own path in terms of winning the Big Ten, and even with a loss to Iowa, it would just have to win out in order to make an appearance in the Big Ten Championship.
Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. on Saturday at Kinnick Stadium.
Ahead of the B1G clash, Northwestern released its injury report:

Both Jared McGee and Trae Williams being out will certainly hurt Northwestern’s secondary. Iowa’s passing attack, led by QB Nate Stanley, could have a more-than-expected successful day.
