Morgan State comes to the Barn - OFFICIAL GAME THREAD

Morgan St. Bears at Minnesota Golden Gophers, Dec 8, 2009 6:00 PM CST

Be warned this team may be dangerous!  If we do not take them seriously this could be an ugly loss for our Golden Gophers.  What is the catalyst for my caution?

Reggie Holmes!

Holmes is averaging 24.6 ppg and has put up 30+ on three different occasions this year.  The Bears managed to upset Arkansas a couple weeks ago and knocked in 34 points to lead them to the win. Kevin Thompson is averaging a double-double for the Bears who do have more to them than just Holmes.

Morgan State starting lineup

G - Sean Thomas (3.5 ppg and 3.5 apg)
G - Reggie Holmes (24.6 and 4.1 rpg)
F - Dewayne Jackson (10.1 and 4.6)
F - Kevin Thompson (13.4 and 11.4)
F - Rodney Stokes (6.4 and 4.4)

The Bears tend to score very efficiently but they also allow a lot of points.  I'm not going on record saying we are in trouble tonight, but if we don't take this game even a little bit seriously we are in trouble!

Go Gophers!

According to Myron Medcalf

Morgan State’s Bus was stuck in Traffic at 5:00 CST…Could be delayed folks…especially with the horrible storm in the metro area.

100% agree

these wins are meaningless because we are scoring in transition. Still haven’t proven we can do anything in the half-court.

what you say here can, and will, be used against you

Well, that was a blowout!

I like the looks of this 3 guard starting offense. Minnesota is running the ball more. That’s good in my books. Defense looked awesome tonight in the first half.

The gophers still can't rebound

without White and Mbakwe. This will be one of their two flaws this year. Poor Rebounding and a lack of half court offense.

argh

I brought the wrong tickets to the game, was on my way back home and before I got 3 blocks away from the arena we were up 18 to 0. We need to hit free throws dammit!

"they're calling insane hogs???"
