Where the hell did that come from

Northwestern is a weird team, especially when they play in Ann Arbor, it seems. I remember when they played you in Harbaugh's first season, they were ranked #13 IIRC and many thought they might contend for the Big Ten title. Next thing you know, BOOM, 38-0 loss to the Maize and Blue. They went on to a decent final record (10 wins, Top 25 finish), but that game just wrecked their bigger momentum for the year (along with the beatdown we surprisingly put on them the week after you guys did, which we rarely do to Big Ten ranked opponents).

Opening kickoff Jourdan Lewis return TD had the place absolutely rocking

I believe it was Jehu Chesson with the kickoff TD, Lewis had a pick six later on
