Hawkeyes - Gophers Game Thread

OMG! This might be the WORST lineup you could have out there! WTF are you doing , Jan?
They're gonna take the lead and have NO time to recover! G-DAMMIT - play to win the game!!
 
Thank you ... Gotta ride starters to the end if you want a CHANCE to win. Hopefully didn't wait to long and now all cold and this ends like Oregon!
FFFUUUUDGE!!
 
Highlight of night for me ... STELLLAR D for all but a cpl minute lapses mid / late 3rd and with around 4-5 mins left in 4th.
This is 2nd win stolen from what I thought was a loss. Please keep the ascent going to peak over next 6 weeks!
 
That was a huge win. This team has some moxy and has the tools to make some noise in the tourney if they keep coming together. I am not sure that Jan has the best five starting and they have got to figure free throws out, but they have some good pieces to work with on this mix of youth and veterans.

1 thing I noticed especially last night is that the offense they run involves shooters moving once the ball is passed into C they move to a spot, often through picks. But they always go to the same spot, so Minny wouldn't follow the shooter necessarily, but rather would move to that spot. It also allowed that defender to jump the passing lane because they knew where the pass would be coming from.

Not an expert or any kind of coach, but there were just so many empty possessions with a lot of passes to not really open shooters.
 
That was a gutsy win vs an 18-5 team on the road. You can tell that the USC game has re-instilled the confidence to win games like this -- I say 're-instilled' because Affolter, Feuerbach, Stuelke, et all have experience winning close games, just not with this group of gals. Now, you can tell, no matter the situation, they all BELIEVE. And they got it done. Great learning experience for all the FR to see how to win on the road in the BTen. Huge NCAA resume road win!
 
Huge W. They kinda got loose with it in the 3rd and early 4th but down the stretch they pretty much made all the winning plays. And it wasn't just 1 person. Kylie made 4 fts. Lucy it some Hannah played with 4 fouls quite awhile and hit a huge shot before fouling out. Syd was rebounding her ass off. And McCabe who hadn't hit a shot all game hit the dagger. It was one of those no no no YES!! kind of shots I thought she took it too early in the shot clock. But it worked out perfect.
