Won myself a lot of drinks and a little money off my buddies who don't know shit. Lou was the perfect matchup for us. Can't believe they wouldn't come out of their packed in D until we were up 18. We did a much better job though dealing with pressure by passing to beat it not dribbling.
That game was won by coaching. All our starters were good but we outcoached them big time.

Bingo.... If Jordan Murphy hits 2, 3's in a game again, I'll eat my hat. Louisville was going to let them shoot from 3. They've been the worst 3 point shooting team out of all the power 5 conferences this year. Credit the kids for knocking them down today. It was their moment. Now they will be massacred in the next round.

Doubt it. Louisville beat MSU by 4, the Gophers beat Louisville by 10. Therefore, the Gophers will beat MSU by 14.Small Hands wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2019 2:56 pmfeekdogg wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2019 2:42 pmThey won because a team that's been putrid with outside shooting got hot from 3.Thrillkill wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2019 2:36 pm Won myself a lot of drinks and a little money off my buddies who don't know shit.

This Bradley MSU game is intense.
Would be awesome to play a 15 seed.

I hear ya, but no chance Izzo's crying ass losses to Bradley. I'm just happy they won a tourny game this year.

I didn't want this Bradley team. Am I crazy I would rather play Mich St?
This will be a repeat of the Gophers Mich St 2017 Big Ten tournament game. Think it won't?!?

Well, that was a cool win. I know some people are going to be all Minnesota on the bit though, and be all snarky and sarcastic after we get beat (maybe even blown out) by Michigan State, but a tournament win is a good stepping stone. Need consistency now though. The bar for this team right now should be set with making the tournament year in and year out. The next step in another season or so should be a tournament win or two...also in two years from now, there shouldnt be any fucking around in the regular season, and questioning until the last few games whether or not the team will make the tournament.

I don't know how anyone can not be happy with that win. We don't win tourney games here often. Today's game was well coached and played.
I believe we can beat Mich St.
I am good with Richard coming back but i agree with you.. They have to build on this. I really hope they don't hand Pitino another contract after this. If they beat Mich st on Saturday, sign him up. Otherwise I hope they make him play out next year and if we have a good year, give him a extension.

Re: ***Official NCAA basketball tournament thread***
Can't wait for Duke vs NDSU. Living in Fargo/Moorhead, NDSU is the center of the universe for so many people here. In football, many don't realize the difference between FBS and FCS. I had a conversation with one fan awhile back saying they would be in the bottom half of the Big Ten, and that they could never compete with the likes of Bama or Clemson...that person's response was..."why has NDSU won the championship so many times then?". Not realizing the difference between an FCS championship and FBS championship.
Today, I just had a conversation about how Duke will win easily...that person's response? "I don't know, NDSU just won their conference championship, I wouldn't under estimate them." Try explaining that Duke has 4 kids who will be in the NBA next year, and they still don't get the talent difference.
Disclaimer: These people do not represent the vast majority of the fans who realize they are the little engine that can, but there are definitely some people (usually born and raised in NoDak) who don't understand the college sports universe.

14/16 yesterday. My only misses, the gophers, so I’m fine with that. And Wofford.
I doubt I’ll do as well today.
