Two common denominators:
1) Fast start
2) Road games for Northwestern

“A year ago in Iowa City, I thought that we got hit and lost momentum early, and then we didn’t respond,” Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said. “We didn’t respond at all. I thought (Saturday), at times, we responded… especially on defense.”
