<p>i know northwestern is a big ten school, but how "into it" are people? i live in columbus, ohio and the city practically stops for OSU football. is it that big of a deal at nw?</p>
<p>NW's football team was actually pretty decent this year. they even made it to a bowl game and are going to be blown out by #17 UCLA.
anyways, my point is that people/students at NW are really going to get more into it now that their team isn't so bad and can actually win. plus evanston is a cute little suburb, and university towns like that are always supportive of college athletics.</p>
