Every once in a great while, they don’t play the games for a reason. Ohio State is that good. While they won’t run the table during the Big Ten season (no one will ever do that again) they should cruise to the conference championship, unless something goes terribly wrong. That something was almost Jared Sullinger’s [...]

Big Ten Tournament Preview: The Top Five

Well, the Gophers sure went out with a whimper. There won’t be any miracle run in the Big Ten Tournament, and there probably won’t be a trip to the NIT either. Post-season basketball is nice and all, but the Gopher season realistically ended when they lost at Indiana, and the team has acted like they were waiting for [...]

It was far from pretty, and for those who tuned in to watch Minnesota take on Ohio State, the consensus number one team in the land, it was apparent that the Buckeyes are on a completely different level of play than the Gophers, taking the second meeting between the two teams 82-69.

The Gophers nearly pulled off a miraculous 18-point comeback against #2 Ohio State on Sunday after a furious final eight minutes before falling to the Buckeyes 67-64 in Columbus, coming up just an Austin Hollins three-point attempt short of sending the game to overtime. Nauseating miscommunications, misplays, turnovers and overall bad play dominated the first [...]

Golden Gophers vs. Ohio State Buckeyes 1:00 pm (CST) at Value City Arena (Columbus, Ohio) TV: Big Ten Network The departure of Devoe Joseph and the subsequent struggle to beat a horrible Indiana team has revealed what may be the unfortunate reality. These Gophers just aren’t very good. Only Blake Hoffarber can make an outside [...]

The reaction: “We all jumped together,” point guard Devoe Joseph said. “I think we might have damaged the couch in there.” Damaged would be putting it mildly. “We did break the couch,” shooting guard Lawrence Westbrook confirmed. “We were excited to see our name.” “I honestly had no clue,” said Joseph, who made the All-Tournament [...]

After an encouraging victory at home over a legitimate Northwestern team, the Gophers went on the road to Ohio State in hopes of building on their glimmer of success.  What we saw, though, was perhaps the worst performance of the year from Minnesota at a point in the season where you’d like to see quite [...]
