@Ope3 and @Holy Man , not to beat a dead horse, and please take this in the friendly spirit it is intended, but if you’d decided to invest the 8 bucks in Peacock, you could watch the Lady Gophers go up against Juju Watkins tonight 🙂.

True. AND they shot 20 FTs, we shot 6, which is a reflection of their taking the ball to the rim and grabbing offensive boards for second chance buckets.

Asuma has near starter minutes. Odukala is one of the best defenders and rebounders on the team. If any starter should sit, IMO, it should be Patterson. He dribbles away a lot of minutes without looking to pass or penetrate. His shooting percentages is horrible. Betts? Still a question mark. He...

Back to the game: Obviously, we got blown off the court in the 2nd half of the First half, and that flurry from Holloman was a gut punch. Up to that point, in spite of horrible offense, defense was keeping us in the game. The first half illustrated the difference between an elite program and...

So funny! Such great fans! And I pay $12. to park plus drive 30 miles round trip often through rush hour traffic to get to the games. Plus price of tickets… Worth the effort? To me it is. I love the game. Love it more when we win of course. But I know many people don’t care all that much….

You can get Peacock for $7.99/month, cancel anytime, so if you want to watch the game it’d cost you 8 bucks. Cheaper than buying one ticket. Or you could keep it the rest of the season for about $24. I was lucky to get a special deal, one year for $12.99 offered last summer.

Hahaha! I love it that so many of the Ben haters don’t have season tickets and many rare,y go to games, some admit they don’t regularly watch them. Many of the people who sit around us are supportive of a coach Johnson and believed that he coached good games against Michigan, Iowa, and Oregon...

I was at the game. Fun game. I’ll be honest. I was surprised we won, especially after we let them back in and blew an 18 point lead. But, credit the players for maintaining composure, Fox and Garcia for monster game, and coach Ben Johnson for a defensive strategy that took Bittle and Shelsted...

Such a class-less comment, hidden behind the anonymity of a forum. Disagreeing is one thing, I expected that.

I’m one of the old guys here. I’ve had tickers since Musselman was a coach and went to games when I was a kid and John Kundla coached Lou Hudson. I’ve said it before on this forum and I get pounced on and laughed at by the Ben haters, but I think it’s a pipe dream that a coach can rescue this...

The students will be back and that will help, but there is no rivalry (or hate) with Oregon like with the Hawkeyes and Badgers. It’s a niche group that follows this team. I’ve been surprised at how few people in my social circle had any awareness over the last week of the buzzer-beater win...

Our guys have been consistently inconsistent.. IF they can play like they did against Michigan, sustained defensive effort, take the ball to the hoop, rebound, spread out the scoring, turn over the opposition, and hit free throws, they will win. Can they, and Garcia, string two solid games...

Ben deserves some credit for this game. It’s no small task keeping a team motivated after the tough losses they’ve experienced, and I mean both close games and blowouts like at Madison. He had the right players in there at the right time, and the game plan was solid. With the exception of...

Just returned from the game. Garcia’s best game as a Gopher. Incredible D by him and the entire team. Six turnovers in 45 minutes. These guys were ready to play. Well coached game. Had they knocked down some 3’s in the 1st half, they wouldn’t have had to come from behind, but incredible...

KenPom has Maryland #22. They are in the next five in AP top 25. Hard to see Gophers first win coming tonight or at home against Michigan on Thursday.

Grove is redshirted. Would be foolish to burn his redshirt season for a season that is already essentially lost.

Purdue absolutely crushed Northwestern yesterday, was up 25 at halftime. We have hung with some pretty good teams, for parts of some games, including MSU, just can’t afford defensive lapses and scoring droughts. Obviously, need M Mitchell to score, and Patterson to shoot less. Need a complete...

Is there any update on whether/when he’ll play? So tired of Patterson dribbling out so many possessions, and his horrible shooting. At least Patterson can shoot free throw and he has dished some nice assists.

Mike Mitchell made it clear today. He doesn’t go down with the sprained ankle early in the nonconf schedule and the team wins 3-4 more games. Patterson needs to stop shooting!
