Yeah, Gabe has been brutal to start the year. The sad part is he's getting good looks. Robbins hasn't played as well as I thought he would either. I feel like if we just hit some perimeter shots, we'll be okay. We are getting good looks.

lot of new faces


Thankfully our rival to East isn't starting 5 seniors

Maybe this is actually MSU's year. Finally beating Duke early on

Meh ...even stephen f Austin won at cameron Indoor and they had fans to deal with

Illinois is really overrated. They have potential but its basically Ayo and a bunch of solid players who aside from Fraizer don't play a lick of defense.

Not sure if it was because he was a freshman so it wasnt as noticeable or what but last year I did not pick up on how completely 1 trick pony Cockburn is. Dude is an absolute load in the paint(predictably got 2 fouls on bean pole Robbins in like 3 touches). But thats about all he can do.

Guy is a turnstile on D every game I watch. Cant make free throws. His touch is suspect. And his range is non existent.

Planting his ass in the paint against this small and bad collection of forwards is all he needs to do though. Illinois keeps running the same play and Gophs cant stop it with guys like Curry on him.

Watching a game at the Kohl Center without the fans going nuts is just kind of wrong

Nice comeback. Liddell taking over

 

[MaximumSam]

Bucks with a nice game - they are close to being fully operational. Towns looks to be a big part of the rotation based on what I've seen in the 6 minutes he's played. They still have a couple bench guys in Johnson and Diallo who are out. But they were pretty fortunate tonight with Rutgers coming in shorthanded, getting in foul trouble, the their point guard getting hurt. Rutgers is legit.

Buckeyes looked good against a ranked team tonight. Erased a 16 point 2nd half hole to win by double digits.

Big win for the Gophs. Shot out of their minds.

But my conclusion on Iowa is the same. Traffic cone D and a run of the mill bench ain’t winning nothing unless they shoot out of their minds for 6 games in a row.

Got what we deserved tonight. Miss 3 fts the last 30 seconds when you're up 5 you don't deserve to win

yeah, I wasn't sold on Iowa. They'll be good on offense, but still can't play defense.

wisconsin looks like team to beat, hate to say it. Starting 5 seniors helps

Gophers with a nice beat down of MI State, you hate to see it


Minnesota looks like they could have a decent squad, long, athletic, play defense (although defensive rebounding, a huge part of defense, is an issue).

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Michigan State is pretty bad this year(at least by their standards) but the complete annihilation the Gophers pulled off was impressive. That was a beating and never was a game.

 

[rmilia1]

Iowa will be fine. Sure the loss at Minnesota sucked but thats a 1 in 100 type loss ( up 7 with 44 seconds left )

Manhandled Purdue . Easy win vs NW.

I'm more worried about Illinois and Rutgers than Wisconsin honestly. Badgers are really good but they can't score enough to beat Iowa

Conference is stacked this year so big. I think 6 or 7 losses could win it

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Hunter Dickinson tho!!! I hope he keeps this play up the entire season! He's balling!! Next Garza?

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Michigan looks legit boys!!!

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Gophers might be Iowa's kryptonite.

Iowa looks like absolute shit again in the first half

 

[mr.hockey4242]

But the gophs usual 2nd half road pasting came around.

4/4 in getting clocked on the road.

While mostly doing the clocking at home.

 

[PnkPanther]

Michigan just clobbered wi

Howard has good squad
