^A. Due to a scoring error during the Notre Dame game in 1936, a game which was originally ruled a 21–20 win for Notre Dame was determined to be a tie when it was discovered Notre Dame had received one more point than they had actually scored.^[4] Notre Dame returned to the court to finish the game, but Northwestern refused to return to the court. The Wildcats left the building and the game was deemed a tie.^[4]

^B. Larry Glass left Northwestern after 18 games in 1969.^[5] Brad Snyder coached the remaining six games.^[5]
