Match-ups are meaningless. The Gophers have to play with some passion, not to win this game but to show that they have some pride and competitiveness.

In the last four years the Gopher basketball team is 8-20 in the month of February.

  • 1-6 this year
  • 1-6 last year
  • 4-3 in 2010
  • 2-5 in 2009

That adds up to a .229 win percentage in a month when teams should be getting better (those in favor of replacing Tubby, you are welcome for that little stat). Winning today on the road would be really nice for everyone wouldn' t it?
