@uncleter We're kind of down to "it"... at this point, for this team and this season.  Obviously they should have taken care of business in any number of their previous games.  But they're basically now in tournament mode.  A loss tonight, and the season is essentially over.  A win, and it would be a solid win, and there's some mojo and good vibes heading into the game in Columbus.

On paper, Minny is a team we should matchup fairly well against.  But so was Northwestern.  We controlled 3/4 of that NW game, but obviously fell apart and gave it all up at the end.

But its pretty simple, at this point, and there isn't much comparing or analysis needed.  If we lose to Minny, its the final piece of evidence that this team isn't an NCAA tourney caliber team.  And it'll be another bad piece of evidence that heavily tilts this season towards being a failure.

A win doesn't do anything dramatically great.  But it does set us up to finish strong, and salvage some good things to end the season.  

Minnesota doesn't have a Martinelli who can take over the game. Hoosiers by 7+.

 

  Good point......I'll say IU by 5-7 points.

IU probably needs to be up 12-20 at half to win the game. Those second half fades are pretty epic at this point.

I wonder if we'll see more matchup zone tonight.
