At 8 p.m. ET tonight on BTN/BTN2Go, we will replay Northwestern's memorable 34-20 win over Mississippi State in the 2013 Gator Bowl.
This was a historic win for Pat Fitzgerald's program, as the Wildcats put an end to the nation's longest postseason losing streak. Heading into the game, Northwestern hadn't won a postseason game since 1949.
Kain Colter threw for 76 yards and rushed for 71 yards, while the Wildcats picked off four Mississippi State passes in the victory.
Here is a breakdown of Northwestern's victory.
Top moment: Quentin Williams picked off Tyler Russell's pass and returned it for a 29-yard touchdown on just the third play of the game.
Top stat line: Northwestern's defense held Tyler Russell to just 12-of-28 passes and intercepted four passes in the victory.
Top player: Kain Colter set the tone in this game, rushing for a team-high 71 yards and completing 9-of-16 passes for 76 yards for the Wildcats.
