Many things have gone wrong during Northwestern’s (6-5, 3-4 Big Ten) four-game losing streak. Some haven’t been the Wildcats’ fault, like Iowa’s Jordan Bohannon catching fire from three or Michigan’s Hunter Dickinson being very good.
But there’s been one constant during the current skid, that if not snapped soon, threatens to derail the Wildcats’ surprise 3-0 start in the Big Ten and their season.
That constant is Boo Buie. The sophomore point guard struggled again in NU’s 81-71 loss to Ohio State (10-3, 4-3) on Wednesday night in Columbus, continuing the trend of Northwestern following Buie.
