Official 2021-22 Big Ten Basketball Thread

Gophers shot 46% and 50% from 3 tonight. Not going to lose many games shooting those clips. I feel we would have beat any team in the conference minus Purdue and Illinois with those clips. Purdue is just really good and has the size that Minnesota lacks. Although, I will say, for Edey being 7'4, 300lbs, he gets some of the softest calls I have ever seen. Refs were blowing the whistle the second the ball was entered into the post. It didnt make a difference, clearly, but I thought it was funny that you cant even touch a guy that big without it being a foul. But again, Purdue is really good.

One more tough game for the Gophers against Iowa at their place. I think it is winnable but going to have to play a great game. Then we finally get our first game in the Big Ten schedule that isnt against a top half team in the conference.
