It was his shoulder, not his leg. Recently they said he was week to week.

Even if he was ready, I could see why they kept him out of this game. They probably expected to win fairly comfortably without him. The next opponent on Wednesday should be much tougher.

Madelia HS. Was a three-sport athlete (football, basketball, and cross country). Scored over 3,100 points in HS.

Not sure what you're talking about either. No one said he didn't do great against Ohio State. The point was that our running game wasn't a disaster for the remainder of the season after his injury. In fact, it was very good.

As you'll recall, Minnesota did pretty well running the ball in the aftermath of Mo's injury in the first game of the season against OSU. Also recall that MN went through a thing with running backs like Spinal Tap did with drummers (or the Grateful Dead with keyboard players) that season as...

I thought he had a nice game against ORU. He can shoot and he sees his teammates. His defense was fair enough as I recall. He's had a pretty fair career to this point and appears to have improved every year so I think he'll do well enough this year.

Agreed! Potentially, it can get fairly cold (like in the 20s) in late December evenings though so people shouldn't treat it like Florida or Southern California.

I watched the condensed version of the game (Big Ten football in 60) yesterday. He did have one throw that probably fit in that category (although Altmeyer had one or two as well). After 3 straight stellar passing games, Brosmer had one of his weaker passing games of the season but it was good...

Well, that's 15-1 on predictions for Minnesota if I counted them correctly. That's a real indication of how far the team has progressed this season.

Up four places to #55 after the ORU game.

I look forward to that!

There was one more on Wednesday: Columbia beat Villanova 90-80. Things have really turned since the Jay Wright days.

The only problem with the game tonight was the old bugaboo ------ FREE THROWS!

I'm going to copy your homework. Agree on all grades!

One could make an argument that this opponent might be our most expected power conference victory to date but all of our conference victories except Maryland have been by one score. If we can make it a two score margin I'll be happy enough.

Of course you do. We all do. 6-3 looks pretty good right now especially considering the poor start but 6-6 won't look so good even with the poor start.

I voted Mike Mitchell as the more known choice but certainly could be Rigsby based on the scoring he showed in the scrimmages.

Payne had 8 points and 5 rebounds in the first half and managed to avoid going to the line.

I wasn't accusing you personally of rubbing it in. I was talking about the thread itself. It's just a gratuitous dig at Athan.

Payne starting for Texas A&M and had 4 points, 3 rebounds, and a block in the first four minutes of the game. He also has 3 turnovers.
