[NU Sports] Wildcats 68, Michigan 62

[Jim Bendat]

Enjoyed watching that comeback very much - certainly more entertaining than the Ravens-Pats game that was on at the same time. Michigan is not a great team, and if we had lost today, I wasn't going to feel optimistic about the rest of the season. But come from behind we did, and we absolutely have a chance to make to the tournament this year. I know some Big Ten teams have made it in the past with 17 or 18 wins, but I'd rather not leave it in the hands of the committee that might not do us any favors. I think that if we make it to 20 wins, we're in. That means winning our out-of conference games (as we did with Pan American the other night) and going 8-8 in the conference. We can do it! - Jim B.
