What a finish! Hard to feel great after that second half. But a win is a win is a win.
I feel pretty great.
They will write songs about this game.
Beat number 1 and then number 14. I remember being so concerned about this stretch and we just crushed it! Go Cats!!!
I'm tempted to buy 4 next year, not sure I can make every game but certainly won't sell them to opponent fans
I was dying, man. Just trying to reassure myself.
I gotta say, IU’s buzzer shot looked waaaay too good there.
I need air, oh my goodness
I need air, oh my goodness
The paramedics just left the house after reviving me. What can you say about BOO. His all around game is terrific. His decision making has been excellent. Not only driving to the basket on offense instead of chucking up a three but his defense has really been maybe the most impressive part of his game. How many times at the end of a half or game where we got the last shot and never seemed to make them. Not anymore. You really have to say this is his team. Good for him. He has worked hard for four years and is reaping the rewards. Hey guys and gals we are going dancing.
CCC: "We're going to the tourney." That's awesome.
The Ballad of Boo Buie
Boo Buie is Superman. Nothing else to say. WOW!
Buie just wanted it more. Well done.
Who would have thought that both Purdue and Indiana fans would be complaining about how physical Northwestern plays basketball
Their message board is melting down on this topic. Not only do we foul on every play, but the refs are blind and paid to look the other way. Wow. This is pretty amazing to read.
Yes Sir. And we are now ALONE in SECOND place in the Big Ten! If you had told me in November that would happen this year, I would have bet the house against it. I really can't believe it. Amazing.
Still listening to CCC’s post-game press conference right now. Tons of questions and really forthcoming and interesting answers. CCC is great in this setting.
Poor wittle Indiana getting bullied by those meanie Wildcats
Very entitled fan base for a program that has finished the season ranked 3 times this century. The Nebraska Football of B1G BBall
NU has been the proverbial 98-pound weaklings for decades. Nice to be the muscled guy kicking the sand every now and then.
Indiana is now 5-5 in their last 10 games and only hold something like a 20-16 edge against the Cats in this century. They still think they're back in the Bob Knight days, and he's been history for a LONG time now. It's the classic case of the bully being surprised when his victim slaps him back.
Gee, I'm sorry Northwestern commits some fouls as I've always known our Big 10 opponents to be friendly little teddy bears who'd never hack our guys.

I'm seeing a lot of "I used to root for Northwestern, but this team is really hatable and dirty." From Indiana and Purdue fans.
Hm, maybe you just don't like them because they swept y'all?
They don’t like us hitting back
Northwestern should be a mean little basketball school with a student section full of mean students who cheer for their mean, physical players who win games and then walk out on campus and smile at old ladies and pass real classes
The missed shots make be believe this team still has upside. The most complete game this year was the DePaul game. We’ll see another game like that before the end of the year
It's especially laughable coming from Purdue, which basically played football on the hardwoods for years under Keady.
A lot of these schools seem to think they have some sort of divine right to beat NU. They don't. Have to admit it's fun to see them squeal. Don't think I've had this much fun since the footballers beat Michigan two straight in the '90s.
They can't compute losing to a team picked 13th in the conference when their team had such high aspirations going into the season. It's glorious.
