The 1982 Northwestern Wildcats team represented Northwestern University during the 1982 Big Ten Conference football season. In their second year under head coach Dennis Green, the Wildcats compiled a 3–8 record (2–7 against Big Ten Conference opponents) and finished in a tie for eighth place in the Big Ten Conference. On September 25, Northwestern defeated Northern Illinois, 31–6, to end the Wildcats' 34-game losing streak, which remains the longest losing streak in NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) history. Green was awarded Big Ten Coach of the Year for the 1982 season. While the team's record is still the worst of any winner's team, the three wins equaled the team's total over the previous six seasons. The team's offensive leaders were quarterback Sandy Schwab with 2,735 passing yards, Ricky Edwards with 688 rushing yards, and Jon Harvey with 807 receiving yards. Schwab ranked among the leading quarterbacks in major-college football with 504 total plays (4th), 20 passing interceptions (4th), 234 pass completions (5th), 416 pass attempts (4th), 2,735 passing yards (9th), and 248.6 yards gained per game (9th). Offensive tackle Chris Hinton received first-team All-Big Ten honors from both the Associated Press and the United Press International.
