#25 Ohio State vs #21 Minnesota, Sunday, January 3, 5:30 EST, BTN

Ok, was the ref listening in on the huddle talk, or was the assistant actually speaking directly to the ref?

 

[DZ83CK]

Hard to believe Ohio State is a road favorite today. Minnesota should be a couple point favorite even without fans. The NET comes out tomorrow safe to say Ohio State won't be #1 again this year.

Ok. Now do Kentucky.

 

[scarletmike]

Just keep it down here in the low single digits lead for halftime and I'll consider that good enough for the half.

Where is Musa?

on the bench

 

[scarletmike]

Walker has not looked great the last few minutes of the half.

 

[OUatl]

Damn! Walker almost fouled on the 3 to end the half...

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

CJ Walker running the pick and roll is pretty useless at this point. Some of those shots were just awful.

This Robbins guy is exactly the type of player we need, did we go after him in portal?

 

[scarletmike]

And they've gone cold from the field...

Robbins is a nephew of Gophers assistant coach Ed Conroy and a cousin of rising senior Hunt Conroy, a reserve guard, a family connection that certainly helped his case with the NCAA. He's from Davenport, Iowa, which is about a 5½-hour drive from Minneapolis.

As I've been preaching all year, we can't shoot and we have no size. But yea everything is fine

 

[scarletmike]

And now we've hit a double digit deficit...probably not winning this game, but hopefully they keep it under 15.

You're right, fire everyone, forfeit all games and shutter the program.

Well we are well behind Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois in year 4 of Holtmann. This is clearly a Butler roster and not one built for the Big Ten. Butler can thrive off scrappy undersized guys because they can't land big recruits. But we could find someone that is bigger than 6'8 and more developed than Diallo.
