We're hoping that Northwestern are playing the game of their lives (in spurts) and then no-show the 2nd round like we did against Kansas after a nice win over Colorado in 2016.
That's a weird shot at a former UConn team for no reason that I can see

We would destroy FAU. NW runs some good stuff both offensively and defensively. More difficult to prepare for on short notice. Most importantly, they can shoot and run good stuff to get guys open. We should win but they could be a tough out. They did beat Purdue and Illinois so their best game is nothing to take lightly. Hope this OT is not a springboard for more hot shooting tomorrow.

Should have an official at the table reviewing only bang play on.

Good matchup for us. They have decent size, but we're more talented on both ends. I don't see how they will be able to defend our motion. Hassan and Stephon are going to make their guards wish they never played the game.

Hunger isn't good. Clingan is going to have free reign to help aggressively and deny everything at the rim.
FAU is maybe the most overrated team I've ever seen so would've preferred them but it doesn't matter.

Was hoping for at least 3 FAU offensive rebounds there.

Yeah, the officiating in the FAU-Northwestern game is horrific.

Goodman had them beating UConn
I listened to Field of 68 the other night. UConn does not want to face this FAU team, Johnell Davis is a nightmare matchup.

Sure thing, Jeff.

Who is your next NIT matchup? Is it the round of 32? 2nd round cincinatti bow tie coming right up. “A tradition like no other”

Shaka hasn’t been on the court playing defense much this 1st half. Think he was warned ahead of time?
