  1. It’s hard to wrap yer head around these numbers, but after 30+ games, more than half of them will be a “losing streak”...
  2. When he got HOT, he was fun to watch. Almost won the game @ Indiana by himself. This will be the first of many dominos falling in the next week or two...
  3. Here’s an interesting factoid: the ‘71 “Game of the Century” was seen by 55 million people. For a reference, the last Game of Thrones episode was 18...
  4. I have a Wisconsin Back-to-Back Final Four hat, I call my “No Sit Sunday” hat...!!!
  5. It’s important to remember one of the guys who invented Twitter was a UNL “DROPOUT” he couldn’t cut the mustard @ the Harvard of the Plains....
  6. Patience....? I don’t sleep in a Carl McPipe Jersey for nothin’!!!
  7. That ‘91 OU game was in the Big 8 tournament, I remember watching it in some Mexican South Omaha Bar after I got my first tattoo...
  8. At one point today we had 3 true freshmen on the floor along with Thor & Jervay, hard to compete in a “Man’s” league with that lineup. I thought we’d scare .500 this year & that obviously didn’t happen. I could venture a guess as to who stays/goes for next year, but I’d have a better chance of predicting Nebraska’s Bowl game...
  9. Another school record for made 3’s by an opponent (matching WI)...
  10. That 16 point spread doesn’t look so daunting now if you bet Goldy...
  11. Will we see the “Twin Towers” of Yvan & Kevin start today...? Or maybe Arop?
  12. AND... Northwestern knocks off Penn St, so the 14th seed in the B1G Tournament win or lose tomorrow (insert yer own joke here) is now a LOCK...!
  13. And then lose in the first round.... ba dump bump!
  14. As someone else mentioned, I wonder what happened between arriving in Mpls, & then having the two sent back to Lincoln? Did they violate curfew up there or something to that affect? Who knows.... Also, not that it matters, but I wish I would’ve drove a Mercedes when I was a Sophomore in College...
  15. Well, well well.... you can read ALL the details in either newspaper, but needless to say, this sure puts a tidy bow onto the end of the season. Looks like those "end of season" discussions with each of these young men will probably take on a different tone as well.
  16. NCAA tournament 2 of the last 3 years, but the U of M has a WILDLY inflated opinion of their program & always thinks they can do better... (I was a Mpls resident for 25 years & witnessed it first hand)
  17. Young Richard was VERY testy at his presser yesterday when asked about his job security. Trotted out the usual excuses for their middling record, tough schedule, injuries, then said “no other B1G team had the roster turnover we had.” Hey Ricky, Fred brought back ONE player...!
  18. Our opponents halftime adjustments are usually a reminder to their players that they’re WAY taller than we are & they start pounding the ball inside. Carr & Orturo (sp?) will be a handful, but never underestimate the Gophers ability to “spit the bit”...
  19. I listen to most of their games on the radio, don’t let the close scores fool you. They’ve blown HUGE leads vs Iowa, Maryland etc. Not saying it’s a gimme by any means, but I like our chances.
  20. I think Minnesota’s packed it in for the year & knows little Ricky will be sent on his way. This could be our lone road win on the way to Indy...!
  21. Fred said postgame Mack will be back @ practice tomorrow & ready to head to the Barn this weekend. Maybe “Mommy” needs to have a little talk with him...
  22. It wasn’t “Creighton” BAD, but you could see it from there...
