Pretty sad that we've given up 47 to Northwestern in the 2nd half. That' pathetic. They are without a doubt the worst offensive team in the Big Ten
There's no reason to really think that. They've played 28 games 4 months. On average, two games a week? They play that during the High School season and probably double that in AAU ball. These are 18-22 year old kids that are in the best physical shape of their lives. If that's ever an excuse that comes out of their locker room, I'd be deeply disappointed.I wonder if some of our freshman are getting fatigued.

I think it is more so than recent years. They’re just very young.Bad finish here. That killer instinct isn't there with this team. NW missed a lot of wide open shots in the first. Made more in the second. Team has been flat all game. Win is a win but I don't like the energy of this team. Go Illini
