Gophers could get blown out tonight

[Block M]

I would not be shocked. However, I still think they are in decent shape, even if they lose.

Lets hope the steal one.

well yeah.

They can also win.

That's why they play the game.

huh? what a passive-agressive post. just saying you sound like a sports reporter or radio/media personality who always play both sides of the fence (i.e. reusse) so no one can ever try and say they were "wrong".

What a pointless thread. This couldn't have gone in the predictions thread?

Also, the Gophers COULD blow out MSU. #seewhatididthere

the classic Sid "setting up the loss" approach. Whatever gets you through the game, I guess

Lests see what the board looks like IF they get blown out. The sky will be falling etc etc. All I'm trying to say is that a blowout (potentially) is not the end of the world.

Do I smell a moral victory at best?

MSU is one of the best teams, not only in the conference, but the country. Yes assembly hall is a hard place to play, but MSU is miles above Indiana talent wise and coaching wise.

Does MN have a shot tonight? Absolutely. Should they be disappointed with a loss? Absolutely again.

A win at MSU would easily be the best one of the season (or rival a win against OSU) and will take a very solid effort to get, much better than at Indiana. Especially considering MN hasn't won at MSU since 97 I believe, an I don't think that even counts.

They will kill us on the boards.Physically we just don't match up.Who's going to get a board for us?

 

[Parski1]

Wow - Here is a half glass empty thread!

 

[GopherHoopsFan]

The Gophers are going to win by 45 and at the final buzzer skittles and starbursts are going to fall from the sky!

How's that for optimism?

 

[Maximus]

The Gophers may not score a point. Then again, they may score 68.

 

[freshtrout]

Gus Johnson - should be interesting .

Tubby smith is helping by playing the B team for 8 minutes in the first half.

Pass, catch, hold, consider, look, pause, dribble nowhere, stop, pivot -- versus zip, bounce pass, skip pass, inside, outside, open shot.
