So long, Pick Five

Just like the Pick 5, Arby Fields will no longer be available to Northwestern fans. Coach Fitz (who turns 36 today, by the way) has announced NU running back Arby Fields has decided to transfer from Northwestern.  Thus ends Rose Bowl Dreaming’s “Arby for Heisman” campaign. Fields seemed like the go-to running back coming into... Read more »
