***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Spottedmuskie]

I am not sure any team in history has made the tourney with zero road wins.

Would be interesting. Still have Nebraska and Penn State coming up

What’s everyone drinking for the game?
Currently up for me: Indeed Flavorwave IPA.

[GringaGopher]

Jamal !

 

[Spottedmuskie]

Gophers by 2, calling it now

 

[upnorthkid]

if those are going for Cockburn, this is going to be a long day

 

[bc2211]

Robbins wants so badly to make an impact, and it kills our offense.

 

[upnorthkid]

Johnson needs to dunk that ball.

 

[jblass]

Nice Johnson, miss the bunny and then the free throws!

 

[stocker08]

No better way to start what should be a close game than to miss two free throws.

 

[upnorthkid]

Carr you probably need to stay on the one guy who absolutely kills it from 3 for Illinois

 

[GringaGopher]

Johnson misses 2 FT's but then makes the difficult shot.

 

[upnorthkid]

lol Cockburn has such bad hands

 

[jblass]

Time for Carr to sit?

 

[Obi-Wan Okogie]

This is a must-win. Got to find a way to take this game to keep tournament hope healthy/

The defense has been very good so far.

 

[Bayfieldgopher]

Why is Liam guarding a guard 25 ft from basket after Cochburn rolls on the high screen? Keep him in the lane where he needs to be.

 

[bc2211]

Time for Carr to sit?

I donno man, the rest of the team was stationary that second possession. He pulled back twice looking to pass but feet were glued to the floor.

but two bad possessions for sure.

 

[Northeastgopher]

Curry is in, gonna he a nightmare if he is on Cockburn.

 

[upnorthkid]

CARR back to back

 

[upnorthkid]

Curry plays like his feet are glued to the floor

 

[TheBarnyard]

I am not sure any team in history has made the tourney with zero road wins.

Probably not, and I don’t think they deserve to. It’s kind of a joke if they do.

 

[jblass]

Nice pass Robbins!

 

[GringaGopher]

With Liam's lack of mobility we need more Freeman time.

 

[GopherGangsta]

Curry plays like his feet are glued to the floor

Injuries have led to zero lift, athleticism...loved him as a freshman....Freeman should be playing

 

[Bad Gopher]

It's always the unforced errors for the Gophers.

 

[GameDay]

With Liam's lack of mobility we need more Freeman time.

He's weak as well. Can't hold his inside position when blocking out. I get he has an ankle injury but that doesn't excuse him for playing stupid and turning the ball over like he has.

 

[bc2211]

Probably not, and I don’t think they deserve to. It’s kind of a joke if they do.

Counter point: they have three wins against teams either currently or formerly in the top 5 this season. Win today and it’s 4. I’m not sure any other team in the country could say the same.

 

[GoodasGold]

Curry!!

 

[upnorthkid]

would be much more interested to see our home/road splits in the B10, given there is undoubtedly massive skew with the NC schedule
