I know it was the first game and Stanford came out flat, but NW beat them.  Then they blanked eastern Illinois, and beat a decent Duke team.  Stanford then takes down #6 USC.  But the dialogue is "Stanford lost that 1st game" and not "NW won that game".  NW deserves some love.  They should at least be top 25 and probably top 20 now.

Hopefully, they don't unravel in Big Ten play...
