Northwestern is 13-11 overall, 5-9 in conference games, 1-4 in its last 5 games. If not now, when?

These next two games are must-win games with what's coming up after these.

It’s weird how little confidence I have in Oregon winning this game. With how they played in the Michigan trip, they should do enough to win this game, right? I sure hope so.

Oregon is currently 12th, the top 15 make the tournament.

Ducks only 2 games out of last place though. Little room for error to just make the conference tourney.

Oregon has gone from top 10, 3 /4 seed to being a bubble, and their trajectory has it being popped, maybe even before the B1G Tournament. "Must Win" applies to every one of the remaining 7 games.

Haven't been commenting as much, but this team seems like it sort of his its ceiling and we're not seeing significant development of younger players.

TJ Bamba has just been a major disappointment.
Nate Bittle is not a smart basketball player or leader.

Jackson has been good, but when teams focus him, he struggles and teammates need to step up more.

Ultimately, it comes down to poor evaluation/development from the staff. KJ Evans continues to be a mystery. Other young guys don't play.

Ducks still can't defend in the paint, but shots are falling, so they're leading Northwestern.

Good first half, energy is better and shots are falling, but I’ll be curious to see how this team comes out in the second half. Can’t let up or lose the energy if shots aren’t falling. I have a heard time seeing Shelstad and Barthelemy keep up the hot shooting and if that’s the case I’m curious how they’ll respond.

Amazing really. I have never seen a team so bad at defending in the paint!

Bamba should be starting for Linfield, no disrespect to Linfield. An air ball with nobody on him on a 3-ball? He sucks so bad, it hurts. This team is insufferable. 5 point game against another terrible team at Matt, with 2 minutes to go. Yeah, the Ducks really suck.

How did the Ducks end up sucking so bad? They have beat some quality teams. Then Bubkis.
