CHICAGO – A Dallas product and self-described "oblivious-to-everything" receiver, Northwestern's Demetrius Fields conceded Saturday that before reaching this part of the country, he'd never heard of Wrigley Field. The pomp around his team's game there Saturday against rival Illinois doesn't register with him. Then, Monday, he learned of the football layout in the iconic baseball stadium. He heard that the middle of the east end zone's back line sits about a foot from padding protecting the field's right-center field wall. And all of sudden, Wrigley Field mattered to Fields. "I might need to go look at that," he said. Fields will get a chance Thursday when Northwestern practices at the Friendly Confines. And the nation will get a peek Saturday afternoon when the annual duel for the Land of Lincoln Trophy gets staged at Wrigley for the first time in 87 years. The game's leadup has appeared all positive so far, especially for the attention-starved Wildcats.
