When the opposition defense takes Wagler out of the game – someone else has to step up.
Today, someone did.
And as the games go on they’ll have to do this again... probably more than once.

I'll forgo my usual F yeah GIF...
One a side note: Wagler is already the Freshman
. Add in Mirk and I believe this is the best Freshman Duo we've ever had. I don't recall Dee and Deron being close the where these two are at. Now to hope Iowa gifts us the 3 seed in the BTT

1 made three in the second half. 5 for 24 for the game. Not good enough. We got lucky. Thank you, Mirk.
Survive.
And advance.
These games happen. Wouldn’t read into it too much, other than to say it’s a good lesson and reminder before the “win or go home” season begins.
Being humbled but still winning can be a very good thing.
A win is a win is a win is a win.
15-5 B10.
2-0 vs Maryland.

Once this season is over you just build the best team you can around Mirk
Not often 24-7/15-5 feels a little disappointing. All about surviving and advancing at this point. On to Chicago
A win is a win I guess
Lucky to beat the next to worst team in the league with 3 players missing. I've never been less optimistic heading into the postseason than I am right now. That pains me to say, it truly does.

OK, can we talk about how the refs had every right to call a tech on Mirk there with 4 seconds left?
If anything Adams pushed off. Z didn't touch him

Mirko-Man making a great case to be the highest-paid player next season
Pretty sure Brad just said “call me” to Mills in the handshake line.
Have to learn to win games when shots aren't falling. This is a good example.
