(NCAAB) Maryland vs. Northwestern,
Point Spread: 4.00 | -110.00 Northwestern (Home)
Result: Win
Northwestern just snapped its 13-game losing streak, and plays well at home despite their record. The Northwestern Wildcats will look to build on their 67-59 road win over Minnesota in their last matchup last time out. Chase Audige leads the Wildcats in scoring with 12.4 PPG while Miller Kopp has 11.9 PPG and Pete Nance has 11.1 PPG with a team-high 6.6 RPG to lead Northwestern on the glass. Boo Buie has 10.2 PPG with a team-high 4.1 APG to lead the Wildcats in assists while also rounding out the group of double-digit scorers for Northwestern up to this point in the season. As a team, Northwestern is averaging 71.5 PPG on 43.7% shooting from the field and 35.2% from three while allowing 71.3 PPG on 43% shooting from the field and 32.7% from three this season. I look for NW to keep this one close throughout.
