Northwestern comes into this one after another lackluster offensive performance against Ohio State that resulted in the team's seventh straight loss. It'll be faced with another tough task tonight going up against Wisconsin, who shellacked the Wildcats in January. While the crowd will be about 50-50, it's the most impressive student-section turnout since Northwestern fell to Michigan in early December.

The upper decks look pretty full. The student section isn’t bad two minutes before game time. I’ve been out of the country the last few home games, I’d love to see a wildcat victory tonight.

Please?

If the program can become consistent in the near future, this building will have an awesome atmosphere.

There is plenty of red here and in the lower level, but I’ve seen worse.

It’s a close game, mostly we’ve taken several bad shots, and they’ve missed contested shots and missed. First called foul was about 10 minute mark.

Cats are doing a decent job of double teaming 22, but it’s led to several wide open shots as expected.

Law,Turner,and Taylor are shooting under 34% for the year and the season is almost over. Both Law and Turner have 54 turnovers. Ash shot 34% last year ( three point land is what I'm talking about) and had 13 turnovers. And Ash was our best defensive player. Hope we get em back next year

Overall a decent half by the cars imo, some bad shot selection, a missed coverage or two, and several uncalled fouls and we’ve got a chance.

Wisky fouled twice in our last possession, which seemed odd to me, but I hope it bites them in the butt later on.

Our starters burned a lot of energy so I have concerns about that last five minutes of the game.
