Toussaint get hurt? Just saw the last ten minutes. Evelyn and Pemsl saved the day
No just kind of spazzy again. Not terrible but Bakari mostly settled down and he rode him and Connor. Bakari had some poor decisions also but he also felt more trustworthy than Toussaint down the stretch to me.Toussaint get hurt? Just saw the last ten minutes. Evelyn and Pemsl saved the day
He is better in the zone defense. imo.What an amazing win. No CJ, Joe has 2 points on 1-7 shooting, Luka couldn't have played more than 25 minutes. On the road with basically no shooting.
Fucking tough man. That's as gritty of a win as you can get.
Followed by an absurd call. Can't imagine what chat was like in that moment. Thankfully the ball is honest.Kriener with the ballsy block with 5 seconds left. Loved it.
We just don't have enough offense to make up for his mistakes on offense or defense at this point. Bakari makes mistakes offensively but it doesn't seem to lead to as many layups as Toussaint.Toussaint get hurt? Just saw the last ten minutes. Evelyn and Pemsl saved the day
Oturu was doing stuff like that the entire game.Garza’s 5th was the worst call I have ever seen especially given the timing and game flow
The refs were in a shitty position on that one IMO. Garza went to box out, then it gets blocked and he does get up into Oturu's legs and makes contact that causes the fall. My biggest issue with college refs is that they call contact that doesn't impact the play. That actually impacted the play even though it was way less contact then we had seen all day.Garza’s 5th was the worst call I have ever seen especially given the timing and game flow
Garza was getting destroyed multiple times early in the game and didn't get 1 call. Then they call this shit.Oturu was doing stuff like that the entire game.
I really hope that we never again see Kriener take 14 shots. I don't blame him as someone had to shoot and Joe W didn't want any part of it.Luka ended up playing 28 minutes according to ESPN. Somewhat surprising.
Pemsl was 3-3, Bakari 2-4.
Joe 1-7, Kriener 4-14, Connor 1-5 but that 3 was enormous.
Connor had 7 assists, 0 turnovers.
Kriener ended up with 10, 7 and 4 blocks.
8 boards from Wieskamp was big, all defensive. Luka also had 8, Kriener had 7.
They had 9 offensive boards to our 2 in the first half. Second half we got 7 to their 3. That was huge.
If this happens, assuming a loss at MSU, who is the 5? The three teams would be all 1-1 head to head.The KenPom projected Big Ten standings have Maryland 15-5, PSU 14-6.
Then Iowa, MSU, Wisconsin in a 3-way tie for 3rd at 12-8.
Rutgers, Illinois, OSU in a 3-way tie at 11-9. Then another 3-way tie at 10-10.
9 teams projected between 10-12 wins with 3 weeks to go.
Would then become a tiebreaker with the highest place team I think. Wisconsin will be 1-0 vs. Maryland, we'll be 1-1. Obviously we could beat MSU to win a 3-way and we'd win a 2-way with Wisconsin as is.If this happens, assuming a loss at MSU, who is the 5? The three teams would be all 1-1 head to head.
He is shooting 39% from three this year. Yes, it could be higher but that percentage is plenty good for a 6' 11" guy.If Luka comes back and continues to pump the weights and improves his 3 he will be a nba player
No boot seems like a super positive sign.I just briefly talked to CJ. He was wearing untied street shoes and no boot or brace. That has to be a good sign.
I'm fine with Kriener shooting. He looks for his offense and is our 4th best offensive option on the roster.I really hope that we never again see Kriener take 14 shots. I don't blame him as someone had to shoot and Joe W didn't want any part of it.
I think he will be back on Thursday. No boot, Iowa is saying day to day, during the broadcast they said he should be fine as it was a low sprain.No boot seems like a super positive sign.
Looks like MSU split with WI (I had thought they only played once) so WI would be the 5.Would then become a tiebreaker with the highest place team I think. Wisconsin will be 1-0 vs. Maryland, we'll be 1-1. Obviously we could beat MSU to win a 3-way and we'd win a 2-way with Wisconsin as is.
I meant extend his range to the NBA 3He is shooting 39% from three this year. Yes, it could be higher but that percentage is plenty good for a 6' 11" guy.
That locker room looks like the basement of BGM Elementary, circa 1992.
Manager Jack in the middle!
He already has NBA 3 range.I meant extend his range to the NBA 3
They also had 2 10 second violations. I can't remember a college team having 1.In the last 5:20, Minnesota had the following shot attempts:
1. A missed 3pt shot when Garza switched onto a guard who tried to go over him.
2. The 3pt FG attempt Kriener blocked where the phantom Garza foul happened on Oturu’s rebound.
3. A 3/4 court heave as time expired.
Thats pretty pathetic but the D also was better. I think they also had 5 TOs and a missed front end of a 1-and-1. Way to close it out Gophers.
Not sure but but I don’t think so.Can we petition the NCAA to play the BTT and NCAA tourney all at Carver?
Another was missed in the first half. They should have had 3.They also had 2 10 second violations. I can't remember a college team having 1.
No waiNot sure but but I don’t think so.
My favorite was the simultaneous travel/shot clock violation. I also liked the play out of a timeout where within 5 seconds of inbounding the ball Carr passed it to Pitino.In the last 5:20, Minnesota had the following shot attempts:
1. A missed 3pt shot when Garza switched onto a guard who tried to go over him.
2. The 3pt FG attempt Kriener blocked where the phantom Garza foul happened on Oturu’s rebound.

Oh stop it, you love me.Win/win game for me.
Iowa wins and I pocket $20 from a money line bet.
Minnesota wins and Doug takes his ball and goes home.
All in all, I’d rather have the money.
Not arguing the metrics don't help them, but Minnesota might end up under .500 after the BTT. The next two should be wins (vs IU and @ NW) but then a visit from Maryland, followed up by @ WIS and @ IU.9 big ten teams are pretty much firmly in the NCAA tournament now.
3 more fighting for a berth are Purdue, Indiana, and Minnesota. While Minnesota doesn't seem like a tournament team at 12-12, Kenpom has their SOS at #2 and BPI #1.
I think the big ten gets 11.
The Big Ten is crazy good and the conference is going to clean up in the dance. That was a great road win today.9 big ten teams are pretty much firmly in the NCAA tournament now.

The problem for Minnesota is their NET SOS is only in the 20's.9 big ten teams are pretty much firmly in the NCAA tournament now.
