Retro 1995 Northwestern "Expect Victory" Football HoodieCoach Gary Barnett instilled the motto of Expect Victory into his 1995 team as he orchestrated a dramatic turnaround for Northwestern football, winning the Big Ten title for the first time since 1936. Famous for the black jerseys they wore that season, the Wildcats defeated heavily favored teams like No. 8 Notre Dame, No. 7 Michigan, and No. 12 Penn State on their way to the Rose Bowl, fulfilling Barnetts promise to take the purple to Pasadena.
