Massive win. I’d still put it second to Michigan and The Play.

Because of the mythical nature of that last shot and the fact that it led to our first ever NCAA keeps that Michigan win first. But this is an awfully close second.

As a year one member of the Welsh Ryan Rowdies, I disagree. Beating #1 is something special. I think we had a couple shots at Sparty when they were #1 and it just never happened and those NU teams weren’t nearly as talented. The Michigan heave was a prayer, this afternoon they just took care of business. Now I need to go dig out my old WRR shirt.

The Michigan game is No. 1. This is No. 2. This game should enable us to take our second trip to the tournament.

Tap to ‘Rerk will forever be The Highlight.

But Chase with the steal and the audacity to throw a little double-pump in on the dunk was just delightful.

I can appreciate this take, but this might be the win that takes us to another level, the same way that shot did. Beating #1 is huge, and hopefully this marks a turning point where we become consistently good

The NCAA Tourney win was the biggest win. Despite the serues record, NU has beat Purdue many times. Just 1 win in NCAA but still huge.

Tap to Pardon will forever be the biggest play in NU basketball history, but this is a bigger win

The biggest win was the win in Salt Lake City.

No doubt this is a top 5 win, however.

Michigan was the bigger regular season win by a slim, slim margin.

The Cats needed that to make their 1st Tourney.

While it is nice to get the 0-fer vs #1 monkey off the program's back, with a loss, still had a road to the Dance.
