Pathetic
That was the worst performance all year and it came on the biggest stage. There was no excuse to ever be down double digits to that team much less SEVENTEEN! The foul sequence for Lynch started with him fouling when the Gophers had 3 guys there to grab a board and MTSU had just one. The first half consisted of the Gophers missing an ungodly number of WIDE OPEN practice type 3's and at least two horrific Mason drives for errant floaters. Defensively, the Gophers went from locking down MTSU to looking completely clueless for ~20 minutes of game time. From about the ten minute mark of the first half through the 10 minute mark of the second half, I'd bet MTSU scored on 90% of their possessions. The Lynch foul early in the second half....I have no words. That sequence started with Reggie fumbling away an easy opportunity down low and ended with the ridiculous foul.
This is the biggest wasted opportunity in a long time. #5 seed playing in Milwaukee and just completely melted down.
