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

[skiumah1]

I dunno...putting aside that the Huskers haven't been sharp today...if the Gophers play anything resembling a fundamentally sound game, they're ahead in this thing. This team isn't without ability.

Is this NEBs whole team? How do they have 7 wins?

 

[BTChamp]

Here is where Minnesota scores 23 in 90 seconds..........

Let us not forget this is 14th place against 13th place. And we're marginally in the game.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

What % of teams points against the gophers come on layups?

 

[From the Parkinglot]

What the hell was battle doing on defense there. You’re gonna double a guy on the elbow

One place in the standings, but an ocean apart in KenPom/Sagarin

Wait til Dennis Evans gets here. Wait a minute......

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Rutgers on Thurs no cap. Spaulding in da house. Gotta support the team

Nebraska is in 12th place in the conference and playing OK. Gophers may lose by double digits.

No, OSU is 13th now.

Can't have your leaders play this poorly. Garcia is playing decent....but not great. Battle and Cooper have been downright bad.

 

[leib0039]

Battle is offensively talented but losing him might be a net positive. Good night he takes terrible shots, plays no defense and does not seem to even care. And CBJ just looks at them and says nothing. What a trash product

Actually it’s 14th place vs 12th place. Ohio state with their 3-14 record has 13th placed locked down.

 

[XMan]

We’re gonna beat the skunks in our final game. I feel it

True. It's Nebraska. I just assumed.

It's hard to watch the way Battle is coached. I don't know why he gets to do whatever he wants.

They've both checked out for the year I'm afraid.

 

[upnorthkid]

5/5 today. who is this team???

 

[Bad Gopher]

That's just demoralizing

 

[kg21]

that whole sequence was a perfect look at our season.

No foot speed to go get the ball.

 

[howeda7]

Maybe if their NCAA hopes are dead. But if they're still on the bubble. I doubt it.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

It’s over johnny

 

[stocker08]

I wouldn't lose sleep if Battle left. He could have easily grabbed that loose ball....and gave almost zero effort.

 

[big10guy]

Gophers have been out-hustled for every loose ball for the last several games.
That's embarrassing.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Love when Battle strikes a pose after a three after missing the previous 4 open 3’s

I don’t mind a little swagger when he’s playing well but he’s 4 of 14 with 5 turnovers.

 

[stocker08]

Battle could have gotten it. Instead he tried to reach out and grab it on the move and missed. Just another bad play by him today.

 

[XMan]

Maybe if their NCAA hopes are dead. But if they're still on the bubble. I doubt it.

Na we will beat them.

 

[BTChamp]

Cannot pass, cannot catch, cannot reach out and grab a loose ball. Other than that, pretty good ball control.

Edit: Forgot dribbling.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Post game interview . ‘Well, we came at them hard the whole game but they scored a handful more than us…’

 

[howeda7]

Na we will beat them.

Time for a trip to the casino to profit then.
