I really hope Mav got a little endorphin rush from ripping that ball away and then stuffing it in the other guy's face.
. Minnesota is not very good , but a wins a win.
Nice to see a win. I-L-L
A win is a win. This one's nice because they showed guts.
This.
Groce is 3-1 there
+1. Except Rutgers
A painful win. A win nonetheless.
Tonight for the first time I realized Richard Pitino is only 33. He took the job when he was 30. Not sure why that never dawned on me before.
At any rate, he's cratered that program. Glad we could pile on.

At this point, I'll take a road win any day. Got to hit the free throws at the end, glad we had a big cushion..
A little panic there near the end of regulation but gained composure and gutted this one out. I keep thinking that they are turning the corner but can't depend on it any more. Good win that they really needed right when they needed it.

LLNot sure it technically affects my alcohol intake for the night, but it sure is nice to drink to a win. Not a great game offensively, but we had toughness and energy... And Malcolm Hill.
Not quite as bad as guitar dude at Gonzaga but close.
Finke with 16 boards.
This. He was cute for maybe the first six times they showed him, but oh that next dozen times...
