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

[GringaGopher]

Off to a decent start.

 

[mplarson7]

If we only get 1 conference win this year, I am entirely okay with this game being it.

 

[Gophers7633]

Looking good early. Gotta be the best 6 minute stretch of the season.

 

[GophersInIowa]

I was invited to the game since I only live like 5 miles from the arena but declined. I'm hardly a fair-weather fan but I just can't watch this team right now.

Naturally they’ll play the best game of the season since I’m not there. You’re welcome everyone.

I really don't think you have anything to worry about. Enjoy your time away from the Mausoleum.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Randomly remembering the ‘94 game at the old Wisconsin Field House when Lenard/Carter/Orr/Grim/Kolander/Ziggy put up near 100 points for a season sweep of the Badgers. At the home game the students were chanting: “just like football; just like hockey…”

The day we adopted our first dog!

 

[Bad Gopher]

Scoring droughts R us

 

[stocker08]

Seriously? Crowl elbows his way to the basket and then gets and foul called when he's barely touched.

 

[bga1]

We just refuse to help in the post on defense. They can score every time on that.

 

[DarthGopher]

Did Asuma start?

Did Asuma start?

no

Put one of our deep reserves in and have him punch him right in the face. We have trouble scoring, can't shoot free throws and generally lack any offensive cohesiveness, but we play a physical brand of basketball.

 

[VanillaThunder]

5-0 MN (fouls)

 

[stocker08]

Damn.....Odukale doing work on the boards.

 

[Unregistered User]

Damn, Odukale can get UP.

 

[stocker08]

Damn.....Odukale doing work on the boards.

AND he's hitting threes!

 

[Bad Gopher]

Enjoyable game!

 

[JZABR]

Femi with multiple threes!?

 

[Bad Gopher]

God, the turnovers

 

[JZABR]

Damn, Odukale can get UP.

That was a man's rebound

 

[Gilthorp57]

I cringe everytime Edmonds dribbles in the lane

 

[Bad Gopher]

I cringe everytime Edmonds dribbles in the lane

It's so...unnatural

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

I cringe everytime Edmonds dribbles in the lane

He is very uncoordinated and awkward.

 

[Bad Gopher]

I can deal with this halftime score

 

[Gophers7633]

Down 1 is much better than I thought. The CFP will have to wait.

 

[Zeppelin Gopher]

We just refuse to help in the post on defense. They can score every time on that.

Reminds me of 2 years ago at the Barn when Ben had 6'6" JOJ attempt to guard Crowl 1on1 in the post. Over and over without any help or a double team.

Predictable results- we should've won the game but blew it at the end.

 

[bga1]

He is very uncoordinated and awkward.

If he gets sped up, he's bad on offense. Better when he sets up and gets on balance. On defense he's our best post defender.

 

[Zeppelin Gopher]

Damn, Odukale can get UP.

That was a MAN rebound / AND1

 

[JZABR]

He is very uncoordinated and awkward.

He's athletic, but, yes, very uncoordinated.

 

[JZABR]

That was a MAN rebound / AND1

I wish we would get out and run just a tad more and utilize his athleticism more.
