Apparently not impossible. But it took a hell of an effort from Minnesota to battle through some adversity. They are a pretty damn good team and a respectable team to lose to on the road. We just need to take care of them at home now.

 

Dupree McBrayer was playing out of his mind in the last few minutes.

 

Next 4 games for them are *very* winnable.  They could be going into their game @Michigan riding a 10-game win streak!

Hack a Happ strategy put in play tonight but Minnesota was up and they kept fouling him and Happ kept missing. Crazy game.

Seton Hall loses to DePaul.  Say it with me everyone... It's tough to win on the road in college basketball.

Illinois loses at NW.  Say it with me one more time... just for the heck of it.  It's hard to win on the road in conference play!

I guess that's good... but, what if Nebraska needed you there today to win?!

Two decent wins for Missouri State and Okie State.

Our opponents are doing their job.  Time for us to do ours on Thursday.

[B-town hoopsfan]

maryland looks like a top 5 team in the big ten to me after the win tonight. Big guys get you wins on the road and jalen Smith is improving rapidly. 

 

Impressive coaching to do the obvious thing and go zone when Coffey started to kill em to. Not sure why terp fans dislike him so much

He’s got twice as many wins as losses while he’s been there and he’s had slot of guys leave early to go

pro 

[hskr4life]

Some big ones tonight on tap for us...

 

6 PM- OSU @ Rutgers-- Need OSU in this one.  Want them as high as possible when we beat them at PBA.

6 PM- Marquette @ Creighton-- Need Creighton to continue to hold serve at home and make that win look as good as possible.  Quad 1 win isn't out of the question.

7 PM- Clemson @  Syracuse-- Road wins are gold as we know.  Could really use Clemson to pick up a solid road W.  Would be a double win for us as that would knock down the Cuse a little bit.

7:30 PM- Butler @ Seton Hall-- Need the Hall to rebound and keep that win looking good.

8 PM- Iowa @ NW-- Really need the Hawks to continue winning now.  We have the chance to avenge our three losses in conference at home.

11 PM- Cal State Fullerton @ Hawaii-- Some Big West after dark action.  Could use CSF to pick up a few wins.

 

Other games of note

ASU @ Cal in the Pac 12-- Could use a Cal win and make that conference even more likely to be 1 bid.

 

9 Top 25 matchups (10 teams in action with TCU vs KU)... Of those 10 Top 25 teams playing tonight... 7 are on the road.  Could be some shakeups as we know road wins are tough in conference play.

I probably should have been more clear that this is a common critique and not my personal opinion.

Rutgers up by 8 midway through the second half, 53-45.

[hskr4life]

Also... for those who were upset with us... we could be KSU.  Looked terrible all year and looking like an 0-3 start in conference with two home losses (one to WVU).

Jays still fending off Marquette. Marquette's not good on the road.
