I believe the wind benefits Northwestern. Clayton Thorsen has been extremely shaky and while he could have a career day tomorrow, I expect him to be confused by a Tracey Claeys D. Thorsen is completing a pedestrian 49-50% of his passes.
Leidner had his best game of the year last week and this will be the 4th time he's watched or played against Northwestern as a Gopher.
So, I personally hope it isn't windy. Both teams wanna run the ball, but I think we have better potential throwing the ball than they do.
Plus, Northwestern is better against the run than the pass, and their injuries aren't as bad as ours.
