Per Marcus:
The U's upcoming seven-game stretch includes playing Michigan State twice, Iowa again (after losing to the Hawkeyes 86-77 Monday at home), Wisconsin at home and Purdue on the road. Ouch.
In other years this could turn into a lengthy losing streak for the Gophers. Last season, they dropped 12 consecutive games from mid-January to late February, including six road losses.
"If you see what we went through last year, we've been through a lot," forward Joshua Ola-Joseph said. "We want to win. We're desperate to win. Everybody has the same goal here: Just staying focused and trying to come [together]. That's how we overcome adversity."
Go Gophers!!
