Bruins shouldn't take these guys lightly come Saturday. Should be a relatively easy win though if the Bruins play anywhere close to how they played against Purdue.

USC pretty much gave the game to them as they missed 17 free throws and only hit 2 of 13 threes. Couldn't stop NW's star all big 10 player Nick Martinelli who scored 22 points. He averages near 24 points and shoots threes at 52%.

This was NW's first Big 10 win putting them at 1-7 but they can be a little pesky at times. The only common opponent they have with the Bruins is Ohio State. They lost by 4 to OSU 86 to 82 while the Bruins lost to OSU by 12, 86 to 74.
