How to Watch Northwestern vs. Indiana: TV, radio, live online streaming, betting line and gamethread

The Wildcats are going for their fourth straight win against a dynamic Hoosiers team.

David Banks-USA TODAY Sports

Northwestern is on the verge of history. And for the first time in a while, it's positive history, not negative history. After enduring a 10-game losing streak that brought back memories of the Kevin O'Neil days, NU is now one win away from its longest conference winning streak since the 1960s. The coach then? Why, of course... Larry Glass.

Ever since the thrilling win over Iowa, Northwestern has been a different team on both sides of the ball. On defense, the definitive factor has been the new 2-3 zone that Chris Collins debuted against Wisconsin. It's helped Alex Olah a ton, and has allowed him to be a presence in the paint. On offense, Vic Law exploded last week against Minnesota and Penn State, and has added another dimension to NU's attack.

However, Indiana is a different proposition for Northwestern. The Hoosiers are one of the best offensive teams in the nation, and in Yogi Ferrell and James Blackmon, have arguably college basketball's best backcourt duo. Furthermore...

Collins discussed the matchup with Indiana in more detail Tuesday before practice.
