NU has lost 5 straight games. With the key losses they had last season, there are holes in this team and they've become very one dimensional. All St. Louis has to do is shut down Chaisson Allen and the game is over.
I watched the Billikens play Duke a few weekends ago, and minus about a 5 minute onslaught, St. Louis handled their own.
They have some very talented freshman guards.
