Someone needs to explain to Ohio State exactly how long the second half is. Man they have sucked recently in the last 3 minutes

Watching the end of the game was frustrating.

The last 5 or so have been that way. Late game collapses for sure cost them the Illinois and Michigan State game, a real good shot at winning the Michigan game and almost cost them this one.

Its got to be a coaching issue at this point.

5 straight games of this is no fluke.
 
I wish I could wrap my head around being pissed/disappointed in a team that's going to get a 2 seed in the tournament, like osu fans are doing right now. Lol.

With that said, proud of the Gophers fighting til the end. Had ever reason not to give a fuck after getting behind early. Also, even though the season was disappointing given how it started, a big thanks to the Gophers for sacrificing all that they did the last 4 months so I could watch them play every game on the schedule.

Theyve completely fallen apart in crunch time in the past 5 games, lost 4 of them in a row and got lucky to survive today.

I'd say its a perfectly reasonable reaction to assume that this team is broken and that something is wrong with the mental makup.

5 times in a row is no "fluke"

In 3 of those 4 games you played top 5 teams. And the other one you played against a tournament team without a very important piece, and to be honest the refs were awful that game. You guys have overachieved relative to your roster, and they came back down to earth a little bit. But I don't get the complaining about the mental make up and all that or that this team is broken narrative. Every team in the B1G has gone through a rough stretch minus Michigan.

Michigan State is still going to get in. Will probably even avoid the First 4 games if I had to guess.

100%. Unless like 5 or 6 teams won autobids who weren't getting in otherwise

It happens. Iowa lost 4 out of 5 6 weeks ago and blew 3 double digit leads too. You'll be fine . Still a S16/E8 caliber team

These guys are not making it past the 2nd round, no matter what seed they end up with.

They ended the schnide. That’s the first step

I like EJ man. He’s a player

Did you actually watch any of these 5 games? The last couple of minutes in particular these guys just forget to play basketball. Its not just the other team being better, its mind boggling mental lapses by everyone on the floor for us.

Yeah, I watched them all, minus the Iowa game. My guess is you'll make the S16, with a great chance to make the E8. Heck of a season.

I think Holtmann has done a great job with this team.

It's not so much disappointed in the team but it is frustrated with their late game collapses they seem to be doing recently.
 
Rutgers is moving on
 
What a terrible final possession by PSU
 
that was 1 of the biggest chokejobs i’ve ever seen and they advance
