per the STrib:

What was that? The team that was hailed as the best passing team coach Richard Pitino had ever worked with, the team that was No. 1 in the nation in assists just had the strangest, most brutal passing game I've ever seen. There were at least five, maybe more, passes that sailed directly out of bounds. That's bizarre. Or, as Pitino called them: "inexplicable" and "ridiculous." There were 17 turnovers in all. Point guard DeAndre Mathieu, who hasn't been the same player since the start of league play, had five of them. It was probably the sloppiest game of the year, and it came against an opponent that wasn't exactly harassing -- Michigan does not have the reputation of being a particularly disruptive team. Minnesota simply couldn't hold onto the ball.
