Baylor’s Bold Playbook: How They’re Poised to Shock the Gophers and Claim the College Basketball Crown
Minnesota didn’t have a very good season, and a loss here would make them a team that is under .500 for the year. They are already 15-17, so they would have to win the College Basketball Crown (whatever this tournament is) to have a winning record. The reality is that it probably won’t happen. They started the season 4-1, but they lost to Missouri, the only reasonably talented team that they faced. Almost immediately, they went 1-4 over their next five games with the won win actually being impressive with them beating a ranked Indiana team. It somewhat looked like they figured it out, winning five straight and getting them to 10-5. Then, they proceeded to lose seven straight games, and nine of 10 games. In the Big 10 Tournament, they ended up losing by five to Rutgers. The Golden Gophers have a lot of backcourt talent as well. Three of their top four scorers are guards. The other is Jaylen Crocker-Johnson, a forward. I assume he will not be back for this game. He hasn’t played since February 8th.
