No game wrap-ups today. Road travel back to Minnesota shortly. What I can mention is Denver beat St. Thomas 82-80, the teams' second thriller this season. Difference in the game, you ask? Free throws. Denver -- 17 for 20 (80%) Tommies -- 8 for 20 (40%) Decent chance we'll have a Round 3 in...

Free throws, free throws, free throws. Tommies 8 for 20 Denver 17 for 20 That's pretty much the difference right there. 4 league losses by a total of 10 points. Haven't lost back to back games all season. Don't start now. I like how the bracket is shaping up. Sure looks like North Dakota...

IMO, Reusse and Scoggins are the only ones there with any talent. That doesn’t mean I agree with everything they write. Souhan, LaVelle, and Rand are useful for ass wiping, if you still go print version Strib.

Never mind

Hope Niko & Johnny Tauer put their heads together and figure something out. As a fan of both programs, I think a 3 for 1 would be fair. Or even a 2 (The Barn) & 1 (neutral) with the third game at Target Center or the X, if they can do the basketball court thing.
