31-12 Nebraska 3 6:29 remaining in the half. This Minnesota team is just awful, how did UNO lose to these guys?
Minnesota with a Nebraska-esque scoring drought

Pitino Jr. is lucky that Minnesota doesn't have a permanent Athletic Director to fire him, because his team is awful. Maybe worse than Rutgers.
So you catch a pass, take two steps, guy runs into you, causing you to take a third, and that's traveling and not a foul? Okay...
Gophers caught UNO at the end of a road trip, which probably helped. Put them on a neutral court with equal rest, and I would expect UNO to light them up.
How has Minnesota fallen off so quickly? Can Pitino not recruit? This looks like a team full of role players.
I didn't get to see the game except the last 5 minutes when the bench players were on the court...
Everyone is commenting on how badly Minnesota played... well, what about us? Did the Huskers have an average night and Minnesota was just that bad or did the Huskers play well?

Minny's post player isn't as good as what we had been facing and Shields came out aggressively and hot. Minnesota has some good players but we played much better perimeter defense in part because they didn't have the post threat. This like Rutgers was a better match up for us. Late in the game they started knocking down shots against our bench because we were a little slower to the man. It would have been a 40+ pt beat down if Miles hadn't cleared the bench so early.
We looked good. Unlike Rutgers, MN is pretty athletic, we were very aggressive and were knocking down shots.
He ain't his daddy...which in some ways is a pretty good thing...but not on the court...
