per Chad:
With a Sunday night game against Michigan on the horizon, Pitino’s squad has a chance to close the regular season as one of the best in recent Gophers history. Minnesota already has notched 19 wins faster than any Gophers team in the past eight years. If they beat the Wolverines on Sunday, it’ll be the fastest a Gophers men’s basketball team has reached 20 wins since the Final Four-bound 1997 team, whose wins were later vacated because of academic fraud.
Ranked 23rd in both strength of schedule and the NCAA’s rating percentage index, these Gophers are hardly concerned with their resume with selection Sunday three weeks away.
“We’ve got five games left, the Big Ten tournament, we’ve got a great RPI, and a great strength of schedule,” Pitino said. “We’re excited about where we’re at.”
