By John Buhler
The No. 23 Northwestern Wildcats will host the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Saturday afternoon in Week 12. Here is how to watch this Big Ten game online.
College football rolls on into Week 12 this weekend. One game going on in the Big Ten will be between Big Ten West rivals in the Minnesota Golden Gophers (5-5) and the No. 23 Northwestern Wildcats (7-3).
Kickoff from Ryan Field in Evanston will be at 12:00 p.m. ET on Nov. 18. The Big Ten Network will have the telecast. The available live streams for this game can be found on BTN2GO and on FuboTV.
Minnesota enters play at 5-5 (2-5) on the season. This is P.J. Fleck’s first year coaching the Golden Gophers. He will need a win in the next two games to have his team playing in a holiday season bowl. It will take time for him to get the Minnesota program where he would like it, but the winning surely isn’t coming as easy as it did for him with the Western Michigan Broncos.
Northwestern enters play at 7-3 (5-2) on the season. The Wildcats are the No. 23 team in the nation in the latest College Football Playoff rankings. Northwestern should stick in the top-25 with a win over Minnesota. The Wildcats are looking at a 9-win regular season, assuming they take care of business on Saturday and against the arch rival Illinois Fighting Illini in two weeks.
