Not even gonna bother thinking about this one.
Woof.
Also, to the plethora of new usernames I saw in a losing game thread that I never see show up when things are good, you’re the worst.

Tough game...2 in a row is not great. Need to shake off, watch tape and get better.

Get well soon big guy 
No butts about it. That’s a bad, bad loss.
And an especially tough one after Purdue, and with MSU next.

Going to be interesting to see the player grade outs on this one. Also, no field goals in the last four minutes. Our droughts, first or second half, must stop if we are going to make a run.

It's acceptable to lose on BIG road game without your best player. But we have to admit we are not a very good 3P shooting team without Kofi inside.
24-7 run to end.

Injuries suck. Injuries to your All-American center… sucksville USA. Look at points in the paint and that’s pretty much all you need.
We really gotta win vs MSU or this season is gonna start to look tricky.

Probably won’t be detrimental to our NCAA seed since it’s on the road and they’ll consider the injury, but … could REALLY bite us in our quest for a Big Ten title. This is a game we should have won even without Kofi. Praying for his return on Tuesday.
We have to play better
with....
Experienced team
Playing a BIG bottom feeder
I love our guys but some of them were non factors today....
Omar got outworked for several rebounds and loose balls
Damonte had many many open looks that he either turned down or missed
Jacob has been a non factor on both ends for a while now
I will also put some blame on the coaching staff. Our guys seemed ill prepared and some in game decisions made no sense.
We are better then this and need to figure some things out. Reality is there will be guys out for injury or covid but lack of effort/passiveness from a few of our guys is not acceptable

If Kofi takes 1/2 the time to get better that Belo did, I think we can kiss any shot at winning the conference goodbye.
