***OFFICIAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA BIG TEN HOME OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Bob_Loblaw]

Is Michigan supposed to be good? I had thought they were going to struggle this year.

Nobody is this good

 

[mplarson7]

I can't even put to words how unacceptable this is. First conference home game and we are down 19 ten minutes into the game? Like, what?

 

[BTChamp]

I don't think Minnesota missed a free throw. That's a positive

Oops. Holy shit for terrible

 

[Gilthorp57]

I am surprised Garcia is this bad

No drive, no passion

 

[PhiloVance]

Didn't Battle dress for the game?

 

[jblass]

Yikes! Was not expecting this!

 

[stocker08]

Cooper stands there and watches the rebound.

Also....refs are very one sided.

 

[BTChamp]

Keep it under 30 at half

 

[PhiloVance]

Didn't Battle dress for the game?

Oh there he is...just fouled a 3 point shooter.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Oh my!!!! Horrible bb

 

[bga1]

This squad has absolutely no clue what they are doing on the defensive end of the court.

And it’s worse on the offensive end. The staff should be fired at the half.

 

[Wet_Blanket_Guy]

You know it’s bad when your wife is say things like “really…is the whole team sick…how are they this slow and this bad.”

 

[BTChamp]

Sorry everyone, I've had some beers. It must be affecting the boys. That's the only way they can play this bad.

 

[kg21]

Ben had passion last year. Barking out positives, hands in the air for the defense.

He looks like a puppy this year. Just staring blankly at the floor.

This is shit basketball. Pure shit!

 

[stocker08]

At least Payne is bringing some good energy. The foul called on him with complete BS.

 

[GopherBlood777]

Where the F*** is Ecoperson, I need someone to talk me off this ledge lmao

 

[BTChamp]

At least Payne is bringing some good energy. The foul called on him with complete BS.

Yes it was

 

[jblass]

Bench the starters, put all the subs in. At least there would be a valid reason for looking this bad! Might even make the game more interesting.

 

[Wet_Blanket_Guy]

This is a game that gets coaches fired. If it’s not Ben (and maybe it should be) at least fire an assistant in charge of offense and shake it up

 

[Outsider]

Just foul Cooper, it’s like a turnover. Can’t take care of the ball, can’t shoot, and we suck on the defensive end of the floor. Getting run out of the building, disgraceful!

 

[RogueGopher]

I fear that Paynes' time here is going to be wasted... we have no shooters. Battle has regressed from last year. Cooper the worst scoring guard I've seen

 

[GopherBlood777]

I like the current lineup, hopefully they can make something happen

 

[BTChamp]

Who the hell wore Cooper's jersey for those free throws

 

[Tubbyapolis]

Have we been more wrong in our excitement about an incoming player as we were about Garcia? Oof.

 

[bc2211]

Where the F*** is Ecoperson, I need someone to talk me off this ledge lmao

All you are going to get is a lecture

 

[scools12]

And it’s worse on the offensive end. The staff should be fired at the half.

Going out on a limb here but I would think being bad on both ends of the court would not make for a successful game plan.

 

[bc2211]

wonder if butch is looking for a coaching job

 

[Angry]

We’re saving it for the Miss St game.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Better... JOJ... just a tough dude
