Las Vegas - Checking in on the Big Ten tourney and gonna try Northwestern over Minnesota. The Wildcats are not about to scare any of the top shelf teams in the conference, but Chris Collins has his team on a mini-roll, with three
Las Vegas - Looking at the UEFA Champions League and gonna try Borussia Dortmund over Sevilla. Dortmund just lost at Bayern Munich, 4-2, but Bayern is basically the BEST club in the world.

Sadly, they might not have their spark plug tonight, Posh Alexander, but it didn't matter in the last game against Providence.
