[NU Sports] Northwestern 64, Purdue 61

[Dennis W. Brandt]

>I truly believe we can win the Big Ten tournament. Yes we can.

If "yes we can" refers to the phrase Dave Cash applied to the '74 Phillies, 
then yes, we can.  The team is definitely on the upswing after a frustrating 
start and, best of all, is doing it with only one significant senior.  Over 
the last half dozen or so games, this is the most consistent NU team I can 
remember.  The Minnesota blow-out was an exception for a flu-ridden team. 
If only Rowley were adding anything at all to the team, we would have four 
more wins and be a strong contender for the NCAA.  I hope I won't have to 
rent the CBS package to watch the Big Ten tournament.
