I hope we didn't hurt any of their boys...

That one never gets old.

Good for Collins standing up to their bozo coaches after game

I wonder if it was about that dunk at the end? You absolutely dunk that breakaway. The game was not that out of reach. Crazy things happen. Loved it.

I would have done the same and then tossed the ball into their section.

Thanks for posting that. Following the game today on WGN radio today I missed the visuals.

Per WGN: 66-59 NU win ends two of Badgers' winning streaks! (Home and consecutive, though missed the numbers. 8 for consecutive? 20+ at home?)

NU maintains 4th place in B1G with 6 games remaining. 19th win of year for Wildcats. "The road just got a whole lot friendlier."

OK, here are the correct numbers for the Badgers' winning streaks that were broken by the Wildcats' win in Wisconsin today (courtesy of NUSports.com):


• Wisconsin had won 19 straight home games coming into play Sunday, the sixth-longest active streak in the nation. The Badgers also had won their last 11 Big Ten home games and their last 26 against unranked opponents.
• Northwestern outscored Wisconsin 26-12 in the paint. The Badgers had scored 274 more points than their opponents in the paint and had only been outscored in the paint by three opponents this season coming into action Sunday.
• The win snaps Wisconsin's eight-game winning streak.
