The Minute After: Northwestern
Thoughts on a 76-72 loss to the Wildcats:
Mike Woodson still hasn’t gotten over the hump against Northwestern.
He’s now 0-4 against the Wildcats in his tenure. Northwestern remains the only Big Ten program he’s yet to defeat. The Wildcats also have three straight wins in Bloomington with today’s victory. According to the FS1 broadcast, that’s the first time Northwestern has pulled off such a feat since 1916.
After falling behind by 16 points with 6:17 to play, Indiana made a late run and got it to within three points with nine seconds to go. But Northwestern hung on with Brooks Barnhizer making 1-of-2 at the line and a late 3-point attempt from Anthony Leal missing.
