  "account": "Northwestern faced a 29-23 loss to Indiana on September 25, 2026, at Memorial Stadium. The Wildcats struggled to contain Indiana's offense, who managed to rack up 472 total yards. Aidan Chiles, Northwestern's quarterback, had a strong second half, orchestrating three scoring drives and contributing to the team's offensive output. The team's run game suffered significantly, allowing 271 rushing yards and two touchdowns, with Lee Beebe Jr. being the primary culprit. The defense also struggled, conceding 472 total yards and two rushing touchdowns, including one to second-string running back Lee Beebe Jr. Chiles' performance, both in the first half and second half, was inconsistent, with several negative plays that hindered Northwestern's offensive momentum.",
  "summary": "The Wildcats showed lots of promise, but defensive line struggles and first-half mistakes held them back.",
