Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said that Kain Colter has pulled ahead of Evan Watkins in the battle to be the team's backup to Dan Persa.

This is news both for 2011 (should Persa struggle with injuries) and moving forward, as it's expected that Colter and Watkins will battle for the starting gig in 2012.
