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

[FinnGopher]

"Listen to the Wisconsin fans at Williams Arena." That's because the Gophers have an elite coach that has caused Gopher fans to stop caring.

 

[Ewert86PC]

The Badger fans chanting at the end of our home game, Senior Night, no less, should say everything you need to know about what is wrong with this program.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

It’s 65-61 and we have the ball and he’s out of the game. It changes a massive amount

Not disagreeing, just think WI still wins

 

[LesBolstad]

Great TO there BJ. Just when needed- down 7 with 25 seconds to go. Pathetic coach

 

[FinnGopher]

Good night, the parties over...

 

[upnorthkid]

You called it, whistle swallowing

Ya knew it would happen. Just be consistent. You’ve called fouls all half. You have to call something there. Even if you call block, it makes more sense than calling nothing

 

[Ewert86PC]

All that is missing is the Badger fans storming the court.

It's a major swing with how much time was remaining on the clock. Big Ten refs suck.....that's just how it is.

That's what elite coaches do.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

2027!!!

All that is missing is the Badher fans storming the court.

Why would you court storm when they own the gophers to the tune of 9 straight?

 

[LesBolstad]

and trying to carry a hoop out the exit?

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Not disagreeing, just think WI still wins

Agreed. This team just has too many horses for us. We can be pretty competitive with teams beyond the top 5 but rarely can we touch the four or five best teams. This actually is a better than usual performance against the elite teams, especially at home.

Worst case scenario underscoring the depths of futility in which this program resides.

 

[howeda7]

Good try good effort in what better be Ben's last home game.

 

[upnorthkid]

21/24 vs 8/15 from the foul line tonight

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

I've got $110 on Wisconsin -7.

Looks like you get your $110 back

 

[Ewert86PC]

Loved seeing the players effort, but Ben just got tamped down on any strategy to win.

 

[upnorthkid]

Probably better for the program. Reminder of how loud it can be but that we don’t ever get there unless it’s half badger fans

 

[Geneva Lake Badger]

and trying to carry a hoop out the exit?

We're not Iowa, thank you.

 

[Gopher Ally]

Beat by the Minnesota kids again

Hearing crickets from Ben's defenders.....

That's cause we have one of the elite coaches in America.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

Hearing crickets from Ben's defenders.....

I'm sure @Arealgopherfan will be chiming in soon

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Good try good effort in what better be Ben's last home game.

I don't disagree but I think he stays

Badgers getting home cooking in The Barn. It almost sounds obscene.

 

[SomeGopherFan]

Bummer. Rigsby and F. Martin were really good and provided spark, but Badgers didn't turn it over much in second half, made their free throws, and their cutting to basket got them several easy baskets.

 

[Ewert86PC]

I'm sure @Arealgopherfan will be chiming in soon

Isn't Marcus on deadline?

 

[bga1]

Beat by the Minnesota kids again

Not really. Winter, Crowl and Janicki were not the guys that took us down. They were ok.

 

[Ewert86PC]

I don't disagree but I think he stays

Because Badger fans didn't but enough tickets tonight?
