Battle is just killing them.

6 turnovers and 5-14 shooting by Battle

How was Payne's possession not an and one???

 

[howeda7]

Would Battle be better as the 6th man instant offense?

100%

It feels like Battle's many turnovers have been the difference in the game.

Probably are.

WI stays in many games because they protect the ball.

Back to back horrible shot selection.

[Redowl]

I like the defense but boy they are terrible on offense.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Pass first Gopher team wins this game going away.... F TOs

 

[howeda7]

Not clear. Call stands. Let's go.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Last FG was with 8:31 left

Yikes

 

[DanvilleGopher]

They have no go to guy... period!

 

[Johnnyboy18]

In what world is that straight up?

 

[Gilthorp57]

Battle needs to quit pressing, the hero ball stops the natural flow of the offense. He'll get his shots.

I know they won't do it. But 6th man. If not that, they simply must put him back at the 4 spot. The 3 is not working at all.

Battle is NOT a star player. He is a good player that needs to get shots out of the offense.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

5 points in 10 minutes makes it tough.

Tell him that....

 

[bga1]

Tell him that....

I will leave that to the coach.

 

[GringaGopher]

It’s fitting the game ends in a TO….

 

[bga1]

Classic.

 

[rowdaboat]

Why do we have back to basket with 5 seconds left?

 

[SixBySix]

A fitting ending.

Go figure.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Fitting the game ends on a turnover.

 

[Crappie]

Go Cooper.

Observations from my first game of the season watching tbh

-Chucky Hepburn has to be the best name in the Big
-Payne is elite defender/rebounder already, can only imagine his sophmore jump
-We have no threat for penetration on offense, zero
-Garcia is worse than I anticipated, and I had pretty low expectations, nice shot but not no handle, net negative on defense, a very soft player on both ends of the floor
-Not having a starting Big Ten pg (even a bad one) is pretty bad in year 2, if year 3 persists its a fireable offense imo

 

[Angry]

Our NET is gonna be sick!

 

[Redowl]

A moral victory, that’s the best we can hope for. Going to be a long long year.

 

[GopherBlood777]

Progress! Closest conference game of the year.
