Scouting Northwestern

[hhcmatt]

Their 12-1 record is the best since 1931 though they've done it against what KenPom estimates is the 341st hardest schedule.

 

As you've seen, Alex Olah is out indefinitely. Last game they burned the redshirt of 6'8" 230# freshman Dererk Pardon.

 

They don't turn you over and they don't cause a lot of fouls...a few of Nebraska's weaknesses

 

They're a good shooting team who doesn't turn the ball over.

Their effective FG % (2s and 3s) is top 10.

38.8% from 3 (they have 3 guys shooting 40%+)

56.5% from 2 (that was boosted by Olah and his 63% shooting)

Contain Mcintosh and we win.  The loss of Olah is a big one for them...especially when facing us.  He has caused us trouble in the past.

The big question is where will Noah be sitting?

With my Mom on the north side (section 117, if I recall correctly).

Are you still in Chicago Noah?

Are you still in Chicago Noah?

Nope--I graduated from Northwestern this summer, and am now working at UW-Stout for at least this year. It's a DIII school, about an hour east of the Twin Cities.

Excellent!  Teaching I presume.  I thought you had been looking, and I am glad you are able to get out in the work force!  One of these days you can explain what the heck theoretical elasticity is and how three-dimensional problems for isotropic and transversely isotropic bodies applies

 

So have you painted your hard hat blue in honor of the Blue Devils?

Watch your language, CWG; we keep it clean on this site.

Mmmm...Stout.

McIntosh is definitely the catalyst for that team.

I haven't painted a hard hat blue for the Blue Devils, since I may only be there one year. But, when I get a more permanent position wherever I go, you will likely see a new hard hat (it's unlikely given my passions that I will end up in a permanent position at either UNL or Northwestern).

Thanks to the plea from Coach Miles I've decided to take a grandson and attend in person, giving up the Belk bowl. Does anyone have a parking suggestion better than under the viaduct where I ended up parking for Miami? It wasn't bad but took a millennium to exit.

I would just park somewhere like the garage at 9/Q and walk the extra blocks. That is, unless you turn into an ice prism from walking that far.

[Red Rum]

If you get there early enough you might be able to park in the green parking garage. It's $8 but it's a short walk to PBA

This game is a must win in my opinion.

I tend to hate calling games this early "must wins", but I think you're right. This game feels very big

[jayschool]

Most importantly, Northwestern has a 6-8 true frosh who's capable of going off for 28 points and 12 rebounds at any time.

You could substitute any team remaining and they will probably have those stats.
