***OFFICIAL CENTRAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***









Seriously. Don't get in a free throw shooting contest with ANYONE. Play defense and make them make a shot.

Yeah I mean if it gets to like 7 seconds or less. Of course foul if not in the motion of shooting.

But with 15 seconds left? That's asking for trouble even if your whole team is Steph Curry at the line. So much can happen. When you're winning, you want the game over quicker not longer haha
 

Wow, Patterson falls down trying to foul, he misses, and CMU winds up with a clean look from 3. Was shocked he didn't make it

We've got a lot of players that don't seem all that coordinated (for college athletes).
 





Well, they won but not in inspiring fashion. Defense was still pretty good. Nice to see Patterson have a breakout game (sort of).
 

My gawd, two idiot coaches is double difficult to watch. Usually, it's just one in these games.
Silly, stupid decisions and strategy all around.
Gophers WIN! yay
CM needs a three...don't have the guy in the game who just drained one. Evidently, took him out for defense and forgot him? Just keep fouling Garcia...brilliant. Gophers intentionally foul with two seconds off the game clock. Do these guys practice at all?

Well, just got to watch the play-by-play. Seems desperate.
 



I am REALLY looking forward to not listening to the B1G+ kids anymore. I think there’s only one game more left? It’s adding to my frustration with our Gophers’ tentative play on offense and all too common loss of concentration on defense. These are correctable, but progress needs to happen soon.
 





Got the W! Only 6 fast break points again. Just like football our style of play is going to put us in many closer than should be games. Some will be upsets and some will be yucky losses. Just going to have to deal with it. Patterson starting to show some life of scoring. Will need him as the season gets tougher. Funny how offseason all brag about people shooting 35-40% three point shooting for getting them to transfer here, but then all negative when they miss a couple shots and not 100%. If even 42% shooter, that means going to miss the 3 58% of the time. Patterson ended up 4-9 3 pt which is 44.4%.

I realize Ben vs tougher opponents and ranked opponents might be the correct strategy and hope shooting is good enough to produce some upsets. The style of play however is not one that is too exciting and probably doesn't fill the seats as much. Just my opinion, but for others let the long season play out. Need to have some stops and steals turn into easy buckets.

Just need to outscore our opponents probably 17 or 18 more times to have a chance to dance! Rah!
