I hate about everything to do with the University of Wisconsin, and every year it grows. I have a difficult time talking to old friends that went there. Just see their smugness (and trust me, they're ALL so damn smug), and you might as well find different friends, as they're just not worth having.
 

Andre still looks off even on makes. If we're NIT-bound it might be a good idea to shut him down for the season.
 

Refs have been atrocious. That's not the main reason we're losing, but it ain't helping.
 

Hacking up threes and pushing the ball up 20 plus. Classy.

This has been one of the worst Gopher performances of the season. Really, really disappointed in Andre Hollins today. I don't know if his ankle is bothering him (he's not limping), but his mind seems to be someplace other than the court today. It's not the missed shots, that happens, it's his defense, body language, energy level, everything says he's just not in to the game today.

Gophers offensive rebounding has been PATHETIC, I am not looking at a box score, but I can't remember our bigs getting a single O-board in the last 30 minutes of game play.

One last thing, the Gophers are VERY much in the mix for an at large bid still.

He's been that way pretty much all year. WHY?
 

At least the Gophers will be well rested if they find a way to get an at large bid.
 

Now the announcers are having orgasms over Wisconsin

I think Wisconsin is very good. Unfortunately, they probably going to be better next year when you look at the development of Koenig and Hayes. But, I still effing hate Bo Ryan. Effing weasel lookin eff.

Dre starting to hit his shot just irritates me more.

Me too. He's so damn streaky, good scorers should be able to recover quicker from a rough start. Making a few 3's when the game is over proves nothing.
 

A win tonight would have assured us of a NCAA tourney spot but a loss doesn't assure we won't get in. I like our resume compared to other bubble teams just gotta hope there aren't any bid stealers. I guess go Ohio State the rest of the tournament to help our resume as much as we can.
 

Agree. And Pitino has to learn to pipe up and defend his team when they are getting hosed. You are going to lose anyway, might as well light a fire under your team.

I fear he may have the same issue as Tubby, who got lazy about refs because it was UK. Your last name may be Pitino, but B1G refs totally cow-tow to home crowds and certain coaches. If you don't fight for yours they will walk all over you. Clem understood this. No one since has, or maybe Monson did and was just bad at it.

Don't leave Indiana off of that list (not really Crean so much as IU)?
 



And you can't admit that the refs are calling the game one way.

Admit it.

the Gophers fan go to excuse - the refs are against us.

the Gophers got beat by a better team. that I can admit.
 



I agree. No reason to think that this necessarily ends our tourney hopes. It's still a possibility.
 

Hold the ball and clock it out or jack up a 3. Whatever you want Bo Ryan!

Preaching to the choir...I live in Wisconsin and the attitudes of the fans is what has always turned me off. A life long Gopher fan (my niece graduates from there this spring) I have been with them thru thick and thin...BUT it's hard to find a Badger fan that grew up in the 80s when they sucked at everything.

Since the game plays out as a result of what happened previously, it's hard to argue that the refs "aren't the main reason". If the Gophers were only down a few at half, and the refs had called a fair game (or, god forbid, favored the Gophers to the opposite extent of what they did UW today), the game would be completely different than the blowout you're seeing. That said, a really good team still wouldn't get blown out in this case.
 

Out toughed by a team wearing women's tank tops.
 

Mav getting schooled by kids who haven't played all year. Really won't miss seeing him on the court.
 



Richard did not want to talk to Bo, but Ryan physically grabbed him and made him listen to his Grinch talk.
 

Glad to see that act by Smith out their at the end. A grand finale of yet again another air ball.

Those and not mutually exclusive.

And $%%^ Wiscy for chucking 3's in the last minute. Did the chart say to do that Bo, you $%^?
