Northwestern (8-2) meets Dayton (7-2) in the first game of an exciting night at the United Center as part of the State Farm Chicago Legends. Illinois meets BYU in the second matchup of the night.
The Wildcats survived a heart-stopping game versus lowly Chicago State to keep their resume clean of what would be considered any “bad losses.” But the team has also allowed opportunities to pick up quality wins through their hands against both Butler and Notre Dame. While Chris Collins and co. do have wins over Texas and Wake Forest, this game represents Northwestern’s final chance for a quality win before the conference slate begins.
