joined as always by Bruce Feldman, who has been racking up the air miles or I don't know maybe the the driving did you go from do you fly from

Chicago to Columbus I did it's a it's like a five-hour drive that's a little too much for me to do

at this yeah I'm not I'm not thrilled with anything more than four but we have colleagues of

ours that that don't mind driving eight or nine hours so not on a trip after I've already been on the road for three days and I'm just going to be sitting here. So I figured, all right, let me just fly here because I got enough, I got enough crazy travel that's going to happen. Like I'm in the middle of this 10 day stretch. It's a little bit chaotic. So basically I'm in Columbus to work on some TV features till Tuesday. I'm going to fly home,

take my kids trick or treating for a day, and then fly back right back to Columbus because we are

doing Nebraska, Ohio State this weekend. So a little bit of a hectic. Well, I admire your,

you know, being a dad there. And you could have very easily just set up shop at the Spring Hill Suites or wherever you are there in Columbus.

But, you know, you're traveling cross country to be there for trick or treat, and I admire that.

game at raucous, you know, hostile, Ryan Field, where Northwestern beats Wisconsin pretty handily and is now sitting alone in first place at 5 and 1 in the Big Ten, which is not something I would have said was a possibility when they lost a home to Akron early in the season. Your takeaways?

Evanston itself is a really charming, like very pretty place.

Stadium is obviously a little bit underwhelming, but their new facilities is really nice.

I mean, everybody's hyped it up, and it's really, really nice.

So it was an interesting game because Alex Horneybrook wasn't going to play. And so Jack Cohen, who hadn't played yet this year, and they're trying to redshirt him. And so he's, you know, this is going to count as one of his four games. He struggled. And they had a bunch of unforced errors, what I would describe it. I mean, they had turnovers where it was like two other three turnovers didn't even seem like really northwestern had a ton to do with it.

It was just Wisconsin issues. And Clayton Thorson struggled with his own turnover issues,

but Northwestern shortens games, and I think they're pretty disciplined. And they got a nice
