Nash, Northwestern look for payback against Illini
December 30, 2009 9:30 AM
As the No. 25 Wildcats prepare for today's Big Ten opener at Illinois (8 p.m., BTN), they're thinking about the 14-point lead they blew in the final 5:21 of last year's lone meeting.
"We've been talking about it all week," said Northwestern senior guard Jeremy Nash. "We knew we got complacent with our lead last year.
"Our guys have a little salt (in the wound) from them coming back from 15 down and getting a win in our place. Now we want to go back and give them a little bit of the taste of what they gave us last year."
