Northwestern goes with its usual starting lineup of McIntosh, Demps, Falzon, Lumpkin and Van Zegeren. Alex Olah will be available for Chris Collins off the bench.

We just look so out of sorts. Hate to bring it up but packed house and we are pooping our pants. Hopefully we can grab some momentum and go on a run.

Northwestern down 20-10 at the under-8 timeout. The Wildcats are 0-for-7 from deep, Penn State 4-for-8

It's definitely something mental. We have decent shooters. Feel like Demp's slump is extending onto other players.

0-12 from 3 point range. Un-freaking-believable.

Just get the feeling if the 3s start falling we'll pull away. Likewise PSU can't continue at this 50% shooting clip.

I admit I don't follow NU BB like I do FB. Watching this was just painful. I like the faster moving offense compared to Carmody's system but it seems like our guys just take a lot of poor looks early, not waiting for a better shot or pass.

These are very easy shots for good shooters (which they are). Bad, bad, bad in a must win situation. Hope for better in the second half.
