The BTN is awful. Can't believe we're going to miss the start of the game.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
First win for gals ever in Columbus
0-24 ever at OSU…sign that we are ready to win for the first time at Kohl since 1994?
saw that. figured we beat them in the Whalen/McCarville year.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
sorry
Mediacom is ahead of everybody else
good offensive rebounding position from Iverson there.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Leuer
He’d look good in maroon and gold

Shot selections
is poor…no Devoe…No Ralph
Busch putting that ball on the ground for a power dribble is inexcusable.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Tubby's lineups, other than the starting 5, have been awful.
A high low set with RSIII high and Busch low?
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Great entry pass from Wisconsin.
Jimmy Jackson is right about UW’s fundamentals.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Could Hoff have attempted to take a charge on that breakaway?
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Colton has to be strong and grab that damn basketball. 5 point swing.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
pretty tough to come back from 11 down against these guys
that’s like 20 to anyone else

and I think we need to apply full court pressure as much as possible.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
xavier needs to hurry up and finish so we can see this on line

The difference.
Every Wisconsin pass on the interior is crisp and on target. Far too many Minnesota passes are way too sloppy.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
A Jon Williams sighting. In for Colton.
Colton deserved the bench after the sloppy pass and deciding not to box out on D.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
yup...
…..at the Wild game tonight watching the Gophers. I’m putting off going back into the cold as long as possible.

Uh-oh. Bo Ryan screaming and red faced after Gophers bailed out with a foul.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
What is Tubby doing? Hoffarber and Westbrook playing point?
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
He didn't have anything close to posession of the basketball there to be awarded a timeout.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
3 shooting guards and two small forwards on the floor for us.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Wow.
The BTN announcers are right, we’re doing this with no PG on the floor.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
think they got a tad complacent up 14 midway through the second?
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
definitely. couldn't handle the defensive pressure
hoopraker: the rakes offer some takes on big ten basketball
I think it is. In Madison. We haven't won there since, what, 94?
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
I'm not sure that I know what it feels like to beat Bo Ryan. It's fucking awesome.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
With about 10 minutes left in the second half. ...
… I started drafting the daily Nugs/links section for tomorrow with a section on the Minnesota LOSS to Wisconsin. Guess I’ll have to edit!
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Guys, that was unimagineable.
Can you start Westbrook, Carter, Bostick, Johnson and Blake Sunday at Northwestern? Those guys are the reason we won.
Love the effort we are getting from PC and DB. Just so impressed. Westbrook makes some outrageous bad plays, but wow, was he clutch tonight.
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!

Blake, I hope he learned tnoight he can do other things to help this team besides the three ball.
He was really the back-up PG the last 5 minutes and OT.
Maroon and Gold Headquarters: The Daily Gopher
Did that just happen?
The Badgers collapsed worse than anything Minnesota has ever pulled off. Worse than having a punt blocked with ten seconds, worse than, well..everything!
Honestly
That was quite possibly the best game I’ve seen in my life. The only other game from memory that compares is Illinois/Arizona in the 2005 tournament. I can’t believe that just happened.
Kill, maim, pillage, burn! Kill, maim, pillage, burn! Eat babies! Badger babies!
Good stuff, I'm spent
Wow. Reading these posts was almost as fun as watching the game. Great commentary and raw emotion. Go bad and read the posts – it’ll bring a smile to your big ass Gopher faces. Go Gophers!
I think Georges Tomason said it best
UN-BE-F***ING-LIEVABLE!!!!
