At the risk of playing the moral-victory, what-if game, let’s take a look at a few of the ones that got away from the Gophers so far this season.

They had chances to win the Big Ten opener against Michigan State (75-74 overtime loss), at Penn State (52-50 loss), the border battle with Wisconsin (78-76 overtime loss) and at Ohio State (78-72). Regardless of what happened during the rest of the game before the final few minutes, the Gophers were still alive in the closing seconds.

But they couldn’t finish.

Go Gophers!!
 

Yes Bleed - a few have gotten away. Still young and learning how to finish. I think Amir needs to be a bit more offensive minded. Nate is there for the most part. Dupree shows signs of being able to score and Akeem has been playing well. So close but no cigar during the past 4 games. Let's hope they all continue to improve. They can but will they?
