Well nothing says dumpster fire like losing to Penn State, Northwestern and Nebraska in 3 consecutive games late in the season. Maybe Johnson can fly the team to LA first so they think they are back in SoCal, or maybe Johnson can fly a net in from the hoops at USC or maybe Johnson can skip the gimmicks and coach basketball. Up to him.

GET ‘ER DONE JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!
 


Have never won at Pinnacle Bank Arena. It's time. These Huskers are a OK basketball team, but they're not the '76 Hoosiers. Man up and get to the Big Ten Tournament via the front door, not the back door (keep losing, Iowa).

This is probably the most depressing post in gopherhole history
 




Would be pretty par for the course to follow two trainwreck losses with a win against Nebraska. I'm not holding my breath though. I just want to get into the BTT to have a snowball's chance. I'm no math major, but .000001% is still better than 0%, right?

Depends on the number of significant figures in the measurements used for the calculation

Yeah pretty much how this season has gone. Prior to the last four games had you polled everyone on how those games would play out....you would have had a lot of people say 2-2 was possible but I doubt very many would say the 2-2 would come from beating USC and UCLA on the road while losing to Northwestern and Penn State at home....

So at this point....anything could happen today and I wouldn't be surprised.
 

There are very, very few years that the Gophers have gotten 5 Big Ten road wins. The fact that THIS squad has 4 already is just crazy. Home? That's a different matter.

I think the Big Ten is very average this year. A lot of parity and no great teams but yeah this has been a strange season. The margin for error for this gopher squad is so small. I thought after the West coast sweep this team could possibly go 4-1 down the stretch, now I think 0-5 is possible but they will probably pull a surprise win or 2.

Yes, but Nebraska has lost 4 games at home this season (to Rutgers, USC, Maryland, and Michigan). The Gophers looked like a spent team in the last two games but they surprised in the two games prior to those and I think this team plays better on the road. I don't have great expectations going into this but one never knows.

Sums it up perfectly. Michigan State has been the overall best team, but there hasn't been any team that has blown everyone away. Every top team has had bad losses. The balance of the teams reminds me of a mid-major conference

No matter how bad this season has been- it would still be fun to beat Wisconsin....somehow.

Exponentially better than zero! 👍

Danny B covered the 1976 Hoosiers! Chad Hartman was right there with him! We really have loaded the local scene with Gopher fans.
 

I'm guessing no adjustments today, just gotta get unstuck. Apparently we're better on the road anyway. Go gophers!

Well, Maryland won at Oenn State for the first time in over ten years. Maybe there is hope?

We need to come out and take charge, for once.
 





Ben seems to have no realization that the 5 out offense is getting totally snuffed and Garcia has become easier to guard now that opposing coaches have seen it. Post him up to force them out of the perimeter pressure. Right now there is no daylight for anyone in this offense.
