The weak schedule is to insure that the Gophers have enough wins to get into post season play. Historically, 20 wins gets you into post season. We are half way there but where are the other 9 wins coming from? The lack of Away games so far will bite them in the butt. The seeding committee will recognize the weak schedule and treat them accordingly. When the Gophers made out the schedule, they probably knew it was soft but maybe not as pitifully weak as it has turned out. A few years from now, the number of wins will look nice on the Gopher's record and will strengthen Coach P's overall record. The WNIT will probably love to have them back.
