“I think everybody’s excited about it,” McIntosh said. “Every team can go in with a mindset that they can win it just because the league has been so jumbled this year. Anything can happen. It’s an exciting week.”
If the Wildcats don’t win the Big Ten tournament, they’d have to wait until Sunday to learn their fate. The big news on NCAA Selection Sunday will be broadcast on NCAA.com and CBS starting at 5:30 p.m. ET. And while it appears that Northwestern is in a position to get in, McIntosh said the Wildcats aren’t taking anything for granted.
“I think that pressure is still there,” the Northwestern junior guard said. “Obviously it’s not (yet) Selection Sunday, so until that day comes, there’s still going to be a little bit of pressure, but I think we can play a little bit freer just because our record is good enough. We feel we’re good enough. So now it’s just taking care of business and going out and trying to win games.”
Will the Wildcats be part of the field of 68? It could happen. Finally.
