NU is up by 17 in the half. Eight of the nine Cats who have played have scored -- all but Benson. Collins certainly isn't coaching like this is a "buy" game, though. He's been screaming an awful lot. It's interesting that Nance only played two minutes in the first half, too. He may be in the doghouse.
I mean, NU has looked okay, but there's only so much you can tell by a game against Chicago State. Last year, NU beat them 96-31, the largest margin of victory in school history, and the Cats' average margin of victory is 24.4 points in 12 meetings. The Cougars put a scare into the Cats in the second half a couple years ago, when they went bonkers from 3, but this is a team that they should destroy.
