Northwestern finishes off Minnesota Thursday

[No coincidences]

nw -1.5

[BiffTFinancial]

i sure hope so. Michael Juice Thompson isn't going out in the first round. War Shurna.

[GOB]

Sad but probably true. The team just collapsed after losing Nolen. I'm not sure any team in the country can endure losing the first and second string point guards.

[brock]

N.C. in hell

[Serbone]

Yep.
Minny has blowed-up since losing key player Nolen, terrible spread run, and I also think the rumors coach Tubby is a goner has deflated them even further... NW always gives you the full effort.

[OneLossParlayGuy]

as a diehard Gopher fan, I regret to tell you that you are correct

[CMNoney]

I think NW will win, but shying away because Tubby usually has had a lot of success in the B10 tourney. Gophers have lost 9 of their last 10, but had leads late in most of those games.

[obamaismyuncle]

good luck

the play in the past few games after the under 4 minute media timeout in the 2nd half has been as bad as Ive ever seen

[newjerseydevils]

these conference tourneys are killing me. good luck with the play

[hoop guru]

Minny will have a lead at halftime and cover first half spread. NW will get 2nd half cover.

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

Agree with this.

[southpaw74]

Yup...I live in minny and they can't finish a sandwich. no leadership...no smarts..no win

[GOB]

Rumors in MN are that Tubby is near signing an extension. Total speculation by the national media that he'll jump for GT or NC St.

why do you have a picture of a criminal as your aviator?

[dfberger23]

Minnesota sucks, have to take Northwestern.

[CTOWNsCAPPIN]

I like the play! NW it is!

[Wiscsportsfan92]

No miracle at this year's tourney. Gophers headed into their hole till next season

[Godsmack]

i would not be surprised

[BiffTFinancial]

because it's funny.

[BrentCrude]

The Tubby Smith train wreck where he's blaming all the players=mutiny.Minnesota,the graveyard for coaches where they all meet their Waterloo.

[beach nut]

I like Northwestern here as well. Minnesota gave up on this season over a month ago.

[No coincidences]

I'm a totals retard, but this one goes over as well IMHO.

[DroidHAM]

Minny will have a lead at halftime and cover first half spread. NW will get 2nd half cover.

no way, NW gonna shoot the lights out early and lead by DD at half = D

[obamaismyuncle]

everyone seems to be on NW and the line is only NW -1.

Have you watched Minnesota? When NW is hitting their 3s they can bury a decent team, and Minnesota is garbage. I've watched most BIG10 games this season. Even if NW struggles early I just don't see Minnesota scoring alot

I agree. But why is NW only a 1 point favorite?

[DroidHAM]

No clue, but it was one of my fav lines for today..... hope its not a trick =D

That does bother me a little, and the fact that it's down from 1.5.

59% of the public's on Minnesota, though, so I'm not too concerned.

[Roy Halladay]

NW is always a big crap shoot, they heavily rely on the three. Mbakwe should have a field day but Minnesota seems to have lost any kind of heart. Then there is the Tubby factor.

Tough call.

[No coincidences]

I agree. But why is NW only a 1 point favorite?

Nearly identical records, both teams won by 11 on each other's home court where lines were -4 and -5 respectively -- I think this line makes sense.

I know theres that one kid who stalks you about it, but really NC come on with the line movement man. Head to the market with that kind of "analysis"

[obamaismyuncle]

I'm going with the Gophers and UCONN, small for action.
