- Nice to win a game in which defense, rebounding and clutch hustle plays were the key.
- Outstanding rebounding from our guards. We'll need this all season long to nullify the size disadvantage we'll face in most games. i.e. Gonzaga
9 boards from D'lo, 7 from Jordan, 5 from Greene, 4 from Branch and 1 from Felix. That's 26 rebounds from the guard position. Nice!
- The rotation is so obvious and the substitution options are so limited that it positively cannot be screwed up.
Last nights starting 5 with the Aggie and Mr. Jones off the bench is the only possible way to go. Hopefully, we'll gain in continuity what we lack in depth.
- Haven't heard it mentioned yet. But the Gophers had the greatest whistle blower since Edward Snowden in the audience. Loud, screeching whistles from this guy before each of our free throws was a major factor in the game and the primary reason we missed 8 of 9 Ft's at one point down the stretch. The savior was particularly rattled by him. This obnoxious fan nearly won the game for Minnesota.
- Happy Thansgiving all! Enjoy the game and good luck tomorrow. I can't go.
