After demolishing Arkansas-Pine Bluff on opening night, Northwestern (1-0) looks to continue its strong start in nonconference play against cross-town foe Chicago State (0-4). As the Wildcats look to find consistency before Big Ten play begins, the Cougars are in search of their first win after four tough early losses.
