This team is turning me into manic depression, but the mania feels so good

Nico at point ?
Has to be at this point. He has to be on the floor. Maybe not as a starter but needs more playing time.

If the starters don't give 100% effort, keep pulling them. We got guys on the bench ready to give it everything they got.
Feels like the rare recent weeknight game that is not impossible to get home by tip without leaving early. Looking forward to a proper, stress free start on the couch!
Need this one and then win 2 of the last 3 or all 3 would be nice too.
He's gonna get tick ... So will Amani ...
Stop Cam and Garcia. Minnesota is another quality team who is playing well of late

This is the last opportunity left to “mess up” with a bad loss. It would be really encouraging to win without a heart attack and then go out and try to really improve seeding in our last three games!
Have to win this game before the upcoming gauntlet to end the year.
I expect an 82 - 70 type of victory.

I'm unconvinced we can hold a team to only 70 right now.
Yeah, you and I have the same mindset. Too many games have come and gone recently to be convinced this team can guard....today included.
No gimme here, have to bring the A game again.

This is the best team we've played since MSU
Yep, I think IA is playing better right now, but not by much.
Iowa is a better team right now so no

I humbly disagree, but there's not a huge gulf between them in any event.
Anyway, I hope they beat Nebraska tomorrow.
I was about to say Iowa is better than Minny, no?
They are
I am also unconvinced we score less than 82/game the rest of the way lol
By a decent amount imo. Iowa has some nice pieces. Peyton and Dix are pretty solid offensive players. The Illinois freshman are decent.
Minnesota and Nebraska play in Lincoln tomorrow night. 5:30 PM on BTN.
