***OFFICIAL wisconsin AT MINNESOTA SENIOR NIGHT (JOHNSON'S LAST HOME GAME?) IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Ski-U-Ham]

A lead!

Welp

This is how Wisconsin started against Michigan State on Sunday, and Sparty cam back and got the W. So as long as we play like Michigan State for the rest of the game we should be good

This is a dumb fucking defensive scheme. You can't switch out Garcia and Fox to the perimeter and have Crowl and Winters being defended down low by Mitchell and Patterson.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

Patterson can't guard Crowl in the paint...gotta go bigger

We're switching everything, so they're just clearing out one side for a pick and roll and then hitting Crowl on the high low

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Fox runs like an old man with that leaning forward gait.

Johnson exposed before the 4 minute TO.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

We didn’t want Crowl.

 

[stocker08]

Blackwell just pushing off repeatedly.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Betts sighting

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

We didn’t want Crowl.

You sure about that?

 

[stocker08]

Great defense during that sequence. Team looks fired up.

 

[GFBfan]

Did they just send a double at Crowl?

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Good D!!

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

We didn’t want Crowl.

Zip it!

Gophers go on a 7-0 run…not a word from the announcers.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Femi gets a man's rebound then puts in a short jumper. Then, had an erratic pass but I guess we expect that.

 

[stocker08]

Frank the TANK!

Gophers go on a 7-0 run…not a word from the announcers.

Maybe if we do that a few more times they'll notice.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

Good defensive possession, Patterson got stuck on the post, Frank the Tank's man was in the corner. Patterson fronted, Frank rotated over from the back side, Patterson recovered to corner, Frank knocked the post out of the lane and forced a shot clock violation

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Did they draw up that play for Frank Mitchell?

 

[upnorthkid]

Defense is playing hard so at least there’s that. Offense continues to be not good; sluggish and taking dumb shots.

The offense will always be a work in progress

Betts sighting

Good enough to play against the #12 team in the country. Not good enough to play in almost every other game. Makes no sense.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

Oof, oldest inbounds play in the book gets Tonje an open 3

 

[howeda7]

Fouls 6 to 1. The refs honored Ben's request to make it feel like a road game.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

Followed up by REALLY bad defense by Asuma, leading to an and-1 from Blackwell. Just making things way too easy for WI right now

 

[upnorthkid]

Frank Mitchell by far our mvp so far. Other guys really struggling

 

[upnorthkid]

Despite being a really old team, they sure do make a lot of freshmen type plays

 

[stocker08]

Guess that we're just not going to get any calls? Patterson and Odukale both looked like they got hit on the arm in the past three or four possessions.

 

[PMWinSTP]

Can't spell? Poorly trolling at 9 am on a Wednesday? You must be unemployed.

Six-pack breakfast more likely...

Their immaturity is why they lost at home to Northwestern per Ben.
