The skinny: The fourth-seeded Wildcats get their first postseason home game since 1994. NU coach Bill Carmody says he’ll buy tickets for every student that wants to attend, but the Wildcats emphasize there’s plenty of room for non-students who want seats. NU will be healthier than during the Big Ten tournament. Senior forward Mike Capocci passed his concussion test, so he’s likely to be the first perimeter guy off the bench. Freshman guard JerShon Cobb practiced lightly Tuesday, but his ailing hip/groin/back should force him to miss his fifth consecutive game.
Advancement: The winner gets Boston College, likely on Monday night.
