NORTHWESTERN IS GOING TO PLAY NORTH CAROLINA!!!

UNC is considered a preseason top 5 team, and will, in likelihood be the only tournament team that Northwestern will play in its non-conference schedule.  Drawing UNC is huge for a Northwestern team that has eyes at making the NCAA tournament, but a non-conference schedule that, other than UNC, is amongst the easiest in all of college basketball.

For those Wildcat fans willing to get down to Kansas City, there’s an opportunity to see NU take on the game’s very best.
