Cats lose to Wisconsin

They shot well from the free throw line today but only 25% from outside the 3 point line. Wisconsin built up a 7 point lead by halftime and Northwestern couldn’t chip it away. Whether there are any post-season possibilities other than the NCAA Tournament remains to be seen.

Collins says they are done. Too banged up

That’s the smart move. Not much to play for in the lesser tournaments.

Last night the lower seeds won all 3 games, today the higher seeds all won, so the quarterfinals will be the top 8 seeded teams. USC pushed Purdue to the last 30 seconds, though, when Purdue got a generous foul call on an inbounds play IMHO.

Iowa fired Fran McCaffery today after 15 seasons at Iowa. He got ejected in yesterday’s loss to Illinois.
