That was hands-down the best half of basketball I have ever seen by a Northwestern team. Against anyone. It was an absolute clinic. I don't think they are capable of playing any better. The numbers are just silly in every category, but here is my favorite: NU has 18 assists on 19 baskets.

The goal for the second half: No injuries.

It's fun being Duke for a night, isn't it?

Just amazing.

And with 25% of NU's scholarship players in street clothes on the bench. Wow.

Safe to say our guys think this game is over. Not playing very hard right now.

Officiating hasn't been exactly stellar this half either. Just sloppy everywhere. I mean...we WERE ahead 54-18 at the half, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised...

We might as well play the backups at this point. Not very intense right now.

Figures I missed the great first half and now watching this crappy second half. We look utterly disinterested, which is a shame.

I guarantee you CCC is pissed off with this second half.

As well he should be. A complete waste of time. All credit to Depaul, they played their asses off. Safe to say NU didn't.
