Head coaches Chris Collins of Northwestern and Richard Pitino of Minnesota addresssed the media after the game along with the Wildcats’ Dererk Pardon and Bryant McIntosh.
Chris Collins:
- “Disappointing result. I thought we played really hard and it was a game where two good teams battled it out for 40 minutes.”
- “The pivotal point in the game was the 10-0 run. We weren’t able to combat that with scores and our guys were tired and they kept bringing the energy.”
- On the offense stagnating down the stretch: “At the end I thought we actually executed well and got some really good looks.
