Here we go:

Scottie Lindsey was the lead man for Northwestern with 21 points as they went into Columbus and came out with a tough resume-building win. Winning on the road in the Big Ten is no easy task, and no matter how close it was, the Wildcats got it done. Trevor Thompson had a double-double of 11 points and 15 rebounds, but it was not enough to overcome Northwestern.

Games to Watch on Monday, January 23rd:

NC State Wolfpack @ No. 18 Duke Blue Devils, 7:00 p.m. ET: NC State, sitting right on the bubble, is looking for a big road win over Duke, who remains without their head coach. The Blue Devils need to keep winning home games if they want to get a high seed come March.

TCU Horned Frogs @ Oklahoma State Cowboys, 7:00 p.m. ET: Although TCU has the better tournament chances, Oklahoma State is the favorite at home in this one. Can the Horned Frogs grab their second road win in the Big 12?
