"I looked at my watch, and I said damn, I hate these 8 o'clock tipoffs."
The Golden Gophers have lost 4 in a row. That is the definition of reelin'. Pay no attention to the fact that 3 of their four losses were nothing to be ashamed about. The Huskers are definately rockin'. They won their first conference game played in Lincoln on Saturday. Okay, that's not really rockin', but just play along....
To the chagrin of some Husker fans, I look at tonight's game with Minnesota as a chance to pick up moral victories. We're 18 point dogs. Sorry, but I see the potential of an ass whoopin' coming our way. Hope I'm wrong. All I ask for, is the Huskers to play their best for 40 minutes. Shoot better than 40% from the floor, keep turnovers under 12, don't get outrebounded by more than 5, and shoot 70% or better from the line.
Do all that, and I don't care what the final score is. Go Big Red!
