The Northwestern Wildcats will host the Utah Utes in the SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl this Saturday.
The Wildcats, who started off their season with a derailing hazing scandal that resulted in the firing of their head coach --- Pat Fitzgerald --- have remained strong at 7-5 this season. They stand second only to Iowa in the Big Ten West.
They're bringing three straight conference wins into their bowl game on Saturday. They have victories over Wisconsin, Purdue and Illinois in their past three games.
The Utes, who were once ranked the No. 10 team in the country, remain unranked with an 8-4 record. They stand fifth in the Pac-12 with a 5-4 record in the conference.
Utah sports the 22nd best defense in the league, allowing a paltry 20.9 points per game to their opponents this season. Although, they've dealt with several key injuries and sacrifices to the transfer portal that have hurt them.
