Next up for NU is Pitt (5-2) who just beat previously undefeated K-State. They also beat FSU in the season opener. Their losses are against Nichols State and W. Virginia. It feels like a winnable game, but it depends on which version of the Cats show up. It'll be another chance for Spencer to show he is the Real Deal.

It's a chance to win a tournament! To win a CHAMPIONSHIP!

What's the last tournament that NU won? There was that tournament at the UIC Pavilion where the 'Cats beat Notre Dame and Iowa State. Is that the most recent?

Okay, that's something to brag about. Wait, what was the name of this tournament again?

Ft Myers Tip Off.

I'm just glad they didn't call it the "Ft. Myers Classic." The only thing classic in Ft. Myers are Oldsmobiles, and even that's debatable.

I bet there are more Buicks than Olds in Ft. Meyers........

C'mon. Why would a team that has lost to Merrimack and Radnor sleep on anyone? Cats better come to play.

Because we lost to Merrimack and Radford.

Interesting side note as pointed out in the presser and which the announcers still undoubtedly bring up numerous times is that both coaches are from Duke, and Collins and Capel were the starting guards there in their playing days.

Well, that's exactly my point. A Big 10 team that has lost to Merrimack and Radford had better not take anyone for granted.
