Northwestern basketball’s mega-Sunday is officially upon us, with both men’s and women’s basketball tipping off against ranked opponents at 12 p.m. CT. The men’s team is in West Lafayette today, taking on No. 4 Purdue in a hostile Mackey Arena. The women’s team, meanwhile, is in College Park, attempting to take down No. 12 Maryland. Since these two games start at the same time, we thought it would be a good idea to combine their gamethreads and maximize the chatter.
Of note in the men’s game, Elyjah Williams is expected back in action for NU and Purdue will be without star guard Jaden Ivey, who will miss the game with a hip injury, per Jon Rothstein:
Purdue's Jaden Ivey (hip) is OUT for today's game against Northwestern, per a school spokesman.
