Binghamton at Northwestern

Northwestern lost Nick Martinelli, who averaged 23 points last season, and 11 of its 14 roster spots now belong to new players. The biggest addition is Jack Karasinski, who averaged 21.7 points in 30 games at Bellarmine while attempting 5.7 threes a game, and Chris Collins said in October that five or six players could lead the team in scoring on a given night, with more cutting and screening built to create open looks. The Wildcats went 15-19 last season and scored 77.4 points a game across their 16 home games, reaching 80 in six of them. Binghamton went 8-23 last season and gave up 81.3 points a game across its 15 road games, allowing 80 or more in eight of them. Bearcats players missed 174 games to injury or illness last season, and five of the six who suffered season-ending injuries are back. Jeremiah Quigley, who averaged 14.5 points and 6.4 assists, and Demetrius Lilley, who averaged 14.6 points and 9.4 rebounds in 11 games before a shoulder injury ended his season, are the two returning starters on a 15-man roster with six new players, so take the OVER tonight.
