Back to the Northwestern Wildcats Newsfeed

Northwestern survived. And that’s what matters.

If you sat in front of your TV last night in a similar fashion to the picture of Chris Collins did above, I don’t blame you.

Chicago State simply couldn’t miss. Hand in the face? Didn’t matter. Off the dribble? Splash. Several feet behind the arc? Buckets.

Meanwhile, Northwestern unraveled. If the Wildcats turned the ball over once, they had turned it over ten times. If they missed a decent look in the paint, it felt like they’d never hit another shot. Would this really be it? A team that had won seven of its first nine games and gone into the final minutes with the lead against Top 25 times in its two losses?
