#8 Minnesota vs #9 Northwestern game thread

[burton34]

Tied up with less than 8 minutes to go.

Eeek, season on the line, two teams fighting, the better one will win. I hope it's us.

 

[MadisonRaisedGopherCrazed]

I am going to call an 8-0 Gopher run here.

8-0 run was right only it was a wildcat run

 

[burton34]

We just can't score consistently and are going to lose again because of it.

Nice attitude, jackass.

 

[tikited]

It boils down to this: Our players aren't very smart on the court. NW is a smarter team. Hard to win when you constantly shoot yourselves in the foot.

 

[Go Gophs]

They need to get tough and find a way to pull this one out.

 

[The Big L]

Gotta like Tubby in a close game though...

 

[gophersfan]

Northwestern lead by 2.

 

[The Big L]

wow...10-0 run

 

[MrGopher]

Gotta like Tubby in a close game though...

Thats true, but maybe he should focus a bit more on teaching these guys to slam the door shut when were up by a dozen or so.

 

[Go Gophs]

It is not Tubby I am worried about in a close game. It is our terrible guard play.

 

[TcGold]

Im still so baffled how the heck we blew it AGAIN! ARRH

 

[MrGopher]

Bostick needs to STOP throwing up those threes.

 

[TcGold]

Hoffarber cant hit jack...

 

[GoldenGo4Fan]

5 minute drought needs to end....... NOW!!!!!

 

[gophersfan]

Sampson and a foul.

 

[Go Gophs]

Yes Ralph way to be tough!

 

[TcGold]

[gophersfan]

Gophers lead by 1.

 

[GoldenGo4Fan]

Finally a basket and a foul.

 

[The Big L]

Let's get 5 on Coble

 

[MrGopher]

Let's get 5 on Coble

[jasonsmithers]

Ha, I don't know what's faster...refreshing the posts on this blog for people posting the scores that are watching it on tv or watching the ESPN gamecast refresh every 30 seconds. GO GOPHS!

 

[TcGold]

Johnsons been a absolute BEAST defensively, i wish we wouldnt let the ball drool away after getting the possesion

 

[burton34]

COME ON GOPHERS! Hang in there, 4 minutes to gooooo

 

[burton34]

Is this a record for replies?

 

[gophersfan]

Is this a record for replies?

no. i believe the record is the thread when we play at Wisconsin early this season.

 

[TcGold]

Is this a record for replies?

Wouldnt surprise me, bigtime game like this, 2 bubbles, 1 will burst. ITS BIG!

 

[cold man]

I was thinking the same thing Jasonsmithers, haha.

 

[jasonsmithers]

I think I'm ready for Westbrook to start to take over this game right about now.
