    Northwestern Wildcats sit atop the Big Ten power rankings entering 2026. With a 0-0 record, the Cats are projected first in the conference.

We also analyze the impact of the $35 million donation from Liz and Dick Uihlein, the upcoming season opener against South Dakota State, and the team's realistic win projection of nine games.
