I'm hoping this is a fun couple of days rather than an extremely frustrating afternoon/evening.
 

Step on the gas early and don't I've them any hope. No reason this shouldn't be a double digit lead a majority of the game.
 

Just win this game so we have a shot against Wisconsin. Tomorrow night will be REALLY fun if we can get a win today. We're more talented than PSU, just can't have one of our letdown games. Feed Big Mo.
 

Its important for the team to focus on today. I know they are the 10 seed and we beat them twice, but we have losses to both of the lower seeds. If the players overlook anyone, we are in trouble.

Having said that, the fans can look out as far as we want. Obviously, I think putting money on the Gophs to win the BTT would be foolish. However, if we play well, why not us? I assume our road to the championship would look like this:
1. PSU-already beat them twice
2. Wisconsin-beat them once playing all but 30 seconds without our best player
3. MSU-took them to overtime in East Lansing
4. Michigan-should have beaten them at home but we wet the bed at the end of the game

We need to get hot, and win four straight, and I don't think we will do it. However, there is no team on that list where I look at it and say "no way can we win that game".

The fact that Indiana is the #8 seed with that collection of talent illustrates how deep the conference is this year. Anyone, other than Penn State, Northwestern or Purdue, is capable of winning the tournament.
 




So much for my prediction that Indiana would do some damage.
 










penn state getting a lot of second looks
 

Solid start, just have to rebound those long misses.
 

South Carolina has just upset Arkansas! Final!!
 


Malik totally has lost his touch. Almost like he is trying to steer it in.

Malik's turning into a blackhole. Now i'm starting to wonder if Mav taking minutes from him isn't such a bad idea...
 

Man, this is a game that we should not lose ever...

Considering Malik is 1/his last 31, it would be a great time for him to get hot from 3. Law of averages?
 



Not even close for Malik's first two shots - what the hell is going on with him?

Law of averages doesn't apply here. He's not even getting close on his shots anymore.
