Northwestern is on a 12-game losing streak after falling to Illinois, 74-66 on Thursday evening. The Wildcats put four players in double figures, led by Pat Spencer's 18-point night on 8-of-13 shooting, but Illinois got 45 points from Ayo Dosunmu and Alan Griffin to earn the victory.
Northwestern is a solid team defensive team, holding opponents to 42 percent shooting and allowing 69.8 points per game. Offensively, the Wildcats commit just 10.3 turnovers per game to rank among the Big Ten leaders while also shooting nearly 73 percent from the foul line.
