Will we have more than 6 scholarship players against Northwestern? Will the Gophers play hard for 40? This Northwestern squad is solid, currently at 5-3 in the BT.

Their atmosphere is usually blah, we tend to play relatively well on the road. Let’s see if we can claw a way to a win.

GET ‘ER DONE JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!
 


If Garcia and Payne can play I love our chances. Northwestern has no star power. Feels like it will be another close finish one way or the other.

Any news on the Garcia, Payne status? Call me crazy but I would not mind seeing the same group from the Indiana game start again. I want to see what TT can do with more playing time.
 

If it's been six days I would think Payne could clear concussion protocol. Garcia will be interesting never know with ankles. Hope JOJ can go.

Should be a easier match up for Thompson this game not having to go up against TJD.
I don't want to see him take 6 3 PA today. Has to figure it out in the paint.
 


Garcia was at the UST game, pretty bad limp due to ankle, would be shocked if he could play in a basketball game, but who knows with modern medicine.
 

Rest everybody for 2 more games than you even think is necessary. Get healthy and good experience for next year. Sorry Taurus, nobody cares about your senior season (maybe he gets a ton of minutes because he’s the only healthy guy?)

What’s up with JOJ. I am starting to lose track of who is healthy and who is not with all the injuries we have.
 








Let's piss in their Cheerios today. This would be the classic NW let down for them, just like in 11-12 at the BTT when we denied them their first tourney birth
 



Star power or not, at 14-5 and 5-3 in the league, they're doing something right.
NU is solid. Play good D and move the ball well. They had a peek at the Gopher zone so will be prepped for that if Ben uses it again. Guys have to play their best or another L.

Samuels, JOJ, Cooper, PP and Battle to start.
 

Battle has twice missed Payne open in the lane.....Payne also needs to secure the ball better. This is a good match up for him
 





Oh so we're gonna do the turnover game today huh...
Are they incapable of dribbling?
 

Payne and JOJ are a mess turning the ball over.
 

6 turnovers in the 1st 8 minutes will not equal winning.
The kids have to value every possession to have a chance.
 

TT missed easy opp to drive to hoop. lazy pass, didn’t contest shot in lane and missed a three. How long will Ben keep him on the floor.
