Back at The Barn with a top 3 opponent!! These are the games where the Barn is usually rocking!! Fans arriving early, students line up before the doors open, the smell of the season old popcorn engulfs you when you walk the packed corridor, you can’t wait to get to your seats to watch warmups.

Let’s put on a fn show tonight and bring the magic back that we all know is possible.

GET ‘ER DONE JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Better late than never, Stan.

Would be an unforgettable upset. Purdue the class of the conference. Gophers without Carrington and possibly Battle. Going to need to shoot well to have a chance
 

Wonder if the offense will flow better without the black hole sometimes created by Battle.

I mean, we’re still going to lose.
 

There are definite moments when the Gophers look capable of upsetting teams but then in the next moment they look as though they can't beat anyone. Here's hoping tonight they truly have a break through...either beating Purdue or keeping it within 5 points.
 




We could be trotting out an all-time bad Big10 team tonight due to injuries.

Samuels / Ramberg?
Cooper / Henley?
JOJ / Henley?
Garcia (whose backup 4)?
Payne / thompson

Edey will draw fouls, depth will be a major issue for a team that has no depth tonight
 













I’m not sure how smart it was to put JOJ on edey to start. But what else do ya do
 





Only if you count Jackson Purcell or Ramburg. The failure to get one more was always inexplicable.
What's inexplicable is that even with the transfer portal, we can't seem to recruit any shooters at the guard position. You'd think that there are a few pure shooters at mid-majors or D-II that would kill for a chance to play in the Big Ten.
 


Ok......the play where the short slow guy dribbles uncontested for a layup from the right side is getting old.
 


Battle, playing so poorly. Maybe expectation is too high but man, tough.
 



Horrible offensive scheme. Ugh
