Usually, you can look at a boxscore and tell why a team won or lost...not tonight.
Gophers out rebounded 39 to 23. Typically, even more devastating to the outcome...Mich St 13 offensive rebounds to our 3.
They had 22 assists...we had 17.
Turnovers were within reach...we only had 6 but they were under 10 at 9.
Steals...they had 5, we had 4.
Shooting same thing....pretty even...FG% 45 to 48, FT% both at 71%, we did shoot threes better at 38% to 48% but the difference was only 10 to 9 in makes for us and we won by 3.
Not a typical box score result when you get out rebounded by 10 on the offensive glass and they also have 5 more assists. Usually, there is something...like, well they made 19 3's to our 5 or they shot 42 free throws and we shot 11...AND there it is the Gophers made 10 more free throws than Michigan St. But when you foul to catch up that distorts the numbers so...I dunno.
Niko doing an amazing job! I do know that!
