Gophers beat Rutgers

Yep.....lol....Peyton Willis played en fuego and the minimum of healthy players...No Curry, No Battle, No Stevens....

And karma....unbelievable ....last Rutgers possession for the win....Harper has a charging call to take the lead with 6 seconds left...one last chance and the foul gets called on Harper....karma is a bitch......Rutgers loses...68-65
 
Minny played as tough as a 2 dollar steak. Hats off.
After struggling shooting vs Iowa, Geo & crew shot very well.
Some Iowa fans scoffed at our win vs a depleted gophers but this showed how the Barn will getcha.
A miracle win.
Sorry RU..we might be battling RU for that last tourney bid so this outcome is ok by me.
Now, go get a win today, Hawks!
 
not to mention Rutgers was not allowed to mug Minnesota
This times ten. Then after holding, pushing, slapping Iowa for 59 minutes, and 58.1 seconds, the ref calls a ticky tac foul to win the game for Rutgers.

I've been saying this for a long time...B10 officiating is the worst. Why does Purdue win at home, Wisconsin win at home (although MSU beat them with clutch shot after clutch shot) is because the officiating favors them. I've watched Wisky play several times this year at home...my god...if they go to the basket...it's either a basket or a foul damn near every time. It's ridiculous.
 
And 3 of the 4 top scorers didn't play. Crazy! However, that is what can happen when someone goes off and has there best game of their life!! I am surprised it didn't happen against us.
 
Only an upset because the gofs were playing with only seven players. Why not put a manager in uniform?

Yes, Rutgers was not allowed to grab/hold everywhere. Game was called much differently. The way the came was called in NJ was not why Iowa lost, they let Iowa play physically as well in that game. Just made a terrible call at the end. It's why Rutgers has been so terrible away from home (aside from being harder to win on road). They aren't allowed to grab/hold away from the ball when not at the RAC.

The 2 points they screwed us out of IS why we lost actually...
 
Minnesota made "Vegas" a lot of money as everyone and their dog probably bet Rutgers early in the first half when they were down 10 or so.
 
Road wins are good, so of course Iowa win over Minny was good. However, Iowa has to win
at the B1G Bottom Feeder's home courts to get enough road wins to make up for the home
losses at Carver....I would say Iowa beating Purdue at Home will be a challenging game.

LOL....yea, I should've expanded on this a bit. Hey, it's not Rutgers fault....take the dang the foul and the win. We've certainly been on the good side of some very bad calls cause that was a very bad call...I hope we can agree to that.....

Though I should ask Hawk fans....we have been on the good side of some very bad calls like this one, correct me if I am wrong? I am trying to remember now....❓

I should've used this vid below...love it and and yes, it is just b1g basketball.....it all evens out but I am praying this game (that call) does not keep us out of the tourny....again, not RU's fault....... Peace....:)

There were hundreds of events over the course of that game. That call was one of them. It was a really bad call, but it was no more or less important than the hundreds that preceded it in deciding the outcome of the game.

Mistakes happen.
That UNLIKE ANYTHING else in that game was no mistake.

Play better and you don't end up in a situation where one bad call decides the game. You never control what the refs do. All you can control is what you do. Play better, win the game, and complain about the refs. Don't play better, lose, and complain about the refs. Pretty simple.
