Game 13 Review: Gophers get on Westbrook’s back, beat Penn State
Posted on 31. Dec, 2009 by JF.
Everyone knew which player would get the ball, and everyone knew he would shoot at the first opportunity. No one could stop the shots, or the ball from hitting nothing but the bottom of the net. No, I’m not talking about Talor Battle, who did have quite the game. Instead it was Lawrence Westbrook that [...]

Quick Thoughts: Gophers 75 – Penn State 70
Posted on 29. Dec, 2009 by JF.
That was closer than it should have been, but the Gophers took care of business when it matter most. A few quick thoughts before a full review tomorrow: This close win is probably more meaningful in the long run than any blow-out would have been. The Gophers needed a confidence boost, especially in a close [...]

Generous Gophers give Nittany Lions Valentine’s Day gift
Posted on 15. Feb, 2009 by JF.
Maybe you have seen a game like this before. The Gophers get out to a dreadful start that is matched by a just as pathetic effort by their opponents. The Gophers fall behind on a momentum swinging buzzer beater at the end of the first half. Turnovers, poor decisions, and embarrassing mistakes, give their opponents [...]

Posted on 12. Jan, 2009 by JF.
Tubby’s #19 Gophers Dominate Penn State 79-59 For the game, Minnesota shot an ungodly 62 percent from the floor, a byproduct of being iron hot, but also the aforementioned efficiency on offense. Weekend Review You could point out that the Gophers were fortunate to get some hot shooting after going 9-9 from three and shooting 63% [...]

With the basket as big as the ocean, #19 Gophers crush Penn State
Posted on 11. Jan, 2009 by JF.
Maybe the ugliness in Iowa City on Thursday was worth it after all, because the Gophers appear to have gotten all the bad offense out of their system. Led by a pair of junior college transfers, the Gophers did not miss a three pointer and shot 62.5% from the floor including 9-9 three pointers to [...]

Pre-game Reading: #19 Minnesota vs. Penn State
Posted on 11. Jan, 2009 by JF.
Penn State Hater I’m predicting a surprisingly great game out of Cornley, and a career type game out of senior backup guard Danny Morrissey, currently averaging a career low in points and three point percentage, but who inexplicably goes off for 25 points, including 7-10 on three pointers. Despite that, the Gophers still take a [...]
