per Powers:

This one was decided in the first half when Buckeyes freshman sensation D'Angelo Russell went off for 25 points.

The second half and then the overtime provided some first-class entertainment for the multitudes, most dressed in flatteringly slimming black at Williams Arena. Man, wearing black made a lot of large folks look fit and trim. This was a real fashion awakening for me. Yet the Gophers were in too deep after the first 20 minutes.

The rest was gut-wrenching and emotional but ultimately unsuccessful. The Gophers, after a promising nonconference start, now are 0-3 in the Big Ten. At this rate, they will get a chance to defend their NIT crown.
