Northwestern enters the 2026 season under fourth-year head coach David Braun with first-year offensive coordinator Chip Kelly implementing a new scheme after the Wildcats posted a 7-6 record in 2025. The roster features transfers and young talent at key positions, including quarterback competition, while the defense returns continuity under coordinator Tim McGarigle. A challenging Big Ten schedule includes road games at Oregon and Ohio State plus a home matchup against Colorado, though early non-conference contests against South Dakota State and Ball State offer winnable opportunities. The debut of the renovated Ryan Field adds home-field energy, yet the overall outlook centers on how quickly the offense adapts amid a demanding conference slate.

Only official regular-season games count. Conference championship games, bowl games, and College Football Playoff games do not count even if the NCAA recognizes them as such. Only played games resulting in a win will count toward this total.
If the listed team plays fewer games than scheduled due to cancellation, weather, forfeit, or any other reason, only actual wins recorded count toward the total; canceled or unplayed games do not count as wins.
If the 2026 NCAA Division 1 Football regular season is cancelled, postponed after December 26, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or it cannot be determined how many wins the listed team recorded within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source will be official NCAA and conference records (https://www.ncaa.com); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
