***OFFICIAL UW-GB VS MINNESOTA FIRST ROUND NCAA TOURNAMENT GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[rowdaboat]

Way too slow rotating back when Tonga pushes outside arc

 

[Gophermangeek]

Just find a way

 

[Gophearl]

Well, it's crunch time. Go Gophers!

 

[DietCokeFan]

God we’re about to be the laughing stock of the NCAA aren’t we?

 

[Aesop70]

Have to dial it in. Dawn better have the means to get them motivated.
Lose this home game and goodbye good transfer candidates, goodbye better recruits.

 

[GringaGopher]

Need to put Tori back in. There’s no tomorrow.

I’ve been screaming that behind the Gopher bench. No sense saving her now

 

[Star City]

No top 4 seed lost in either tournament yet. Minnesota Sports.

No Top 4 seed has lost in the first round of women's tournament at home since they went to the Top 4 seeds hosting in 2015.

 

[Gophearl]

This is awful.
And why is McKinney sitting so much?

she has 3 fouls

 

[drewhaus7]

Does this game prove women's college ball needs to review the net rankings points given on the running up the score on the cupcake teams?

 

[Ewert86PC]

If we lose in the first round on our home court, how long will it be before we can host tournament games again?

No match for the Minnesota Sports Gods.

McKinney is so important to this team.

The Gophers were the only team to win at Iowa and finished tied for 4th place in one of the two top conferences.

 

[rowdaboat]

Flopppp

 

[stocker08]

McKinney is so important to this team.

Immediately comes in and turns the game around.

 

[rowdaboat]

Clear path

 

[rowdaboat]

Clean foul but got away with a hold

 

[drewhaus7]

Immediately comes in and turns the game around.

She is a fresh set of legs! Rah!

 

[rowdaboat]

Dagger potential aaaaaand airball

 

[rowdaboat]

Was a 16-0 run and didn't see a single graphic til the very end

 

[BBJones]

A little extreme, don't ya think? The goal this year was to make the tournament, not win it. It's a process, and we're closer to the beginning than the end.

Yup! Was a lot of fun watching us shoot and play fast @ Iowa and shoot unreal 71% behind the arc with 14 attempts. Seems like the heard me big 4th quarter when we are playing much faster! Don't understand why we don't play faster more often.

 

[Border Gopher]

God we’re about to be the laughing stock of the NCAA aren’t we?

No, just you

 

[MOGopher]

Thanks to the referees for making all the calls in the fourth quarter go the Gophers way. I don't think we would have won without them. Very one sided.

 

[Gophearl]

Oh.baby! We played a great 4th quarter and get the win!

 

[mplarson7]

Absolutely ran them out of the Barn that 4th quarter.

 

[gwbbfan82]

OMG. Happy to eat my words!!

 

[Aesop70]

Wow. Night and day last 7 minutes.
Braun sure showed her metal.

 

[howeda7]

I guess that was a brilliant rope-a-dope strategy....

Bigger margin than Ole Miss.
