NU scouting report

Posted February 19, 2012 11:00 pm

Michigan (20-7, 10-4) at Northwestern (16-10, 6-8)

When: 7 p.m., Welsh-Ryan Arena

TV: Big Ten Network

Radio: WSCR 670-AM

Skinny: Now that all the John Shurna hoopla has eased, it’s back to business for the Wildcats, who look to defend home court against No. 11 Michigan.

There might be a little revenge factor as well for Northwestern, who in the last meeting with the Wolverines led by as many as 10 points in the second half, but host Michigan rallied to force overtime before earning a 66-64 victory.

Next: Northwestern travels to Penn State on Saturday for an 8 p.m. tipoff.
