***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MISSISSIPPI STATE IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[CentralGopher]

Yes! 7-0.

 

[cemba99]

As the announcer said - first back-to-back road wins in 4 years!

 

[BTChamp]

Nice!!!!. Big win for this program moving forward. #1 ranking coming soon.

 

[laazrakit]

Regardless of the quality of opponents, who would have thought that the Gophers would pull off a start like this...? Gotta love it!

 

[Spottedmuskie]

The chemistry around this whole team is huge. They are building such a great culture so quickly. We will pull in plenty of transfers this offseason to pair with our '22 class. How long until Tre Holloman flips and signs with Ben Johnson??

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

Incredible spacing. Loved the zone. Willis for the dagger. LFG.

 

[GopherWeatherGuy]

This team is gritty

 

[RogueGopher]

KEEP DOUBTING US! UNDEFEATED!

PACK THE BARN ON WEDNESDAY!

 

[Norwood👅]

That was a symphony thank you Coach Johnson

 

[MennoSota]

This team is so much fun to watch. Team defense, great spacing and ball movement on offense, and unflappable in the clutch. Resilient.
Our lack of size and rebounding will cause us to lose games in the B1G, but this team is going to compete. Great win today!

 

[gopherguy15]

Just can't believe we won this game... and without Sutherlin! Battle was unstoppable midway through the second half and Willis calmly hit the shot of the season so far. Can't stop smiling.

 

[Obi-Wan Okogie]

Cheryl Reeve, Chris Finch, and now Ben Johnson.

Minnesota, home to the ELITE basketball minds!

 

[hungan1]

BELIEVE IN BEN JOHNSON! GO GOPHERS!

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Impressive win. Wish I had been able to watch.

 

[mnhoopboy]

Barn should be rocking on Wednesday night.

 

[WriterGoph]

I'm just so pleased with the resolve of the team and how we have scrapped out some very close games. Nice to see actual coaching strategy and plays. The kids clearly like each other and share the ball

 

[Spaulding!No!]

This. Ike’s game is nutz

[Bayfield Gopher]

Recruits? Pay attention!

 

[Obi-Wan Okogie]

When Ben recruited these guys, it's pretty clear that heart was a major factor. So many of these guys were not on the radar of a Big Ten team but Johnson saw through that, he knew they posessed his most important ingredient. The rest will come with more talent.

It’ll improve their SOS

 

[PhillyGopher]

never trailed in the game - only two ties including 0-0

 

[Lakers612]

With one of our core guys out to boot

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

Well, count me as someone that thought they had, maybe at most, about a 5% chance to win. Was convinced before the game started they would fall short.

 

[ethomasp31]

Who doubted them?

95% of the people on this board...

 

[Lakers612]

Curry looked better this game which is encouraging

And Loewe.

Cheryl Reeve, Chris Finch, and now Ben Johnson.

Minnesota, home to the ELITE basketball minds!

As a MN basketball fan, the difference between our current coaches and our coaches last year is insane.

Whodda thunk nepotism would lead to bad hires?

 

[stocker08]

Seems a bit silly to say.....but I'd have to think the Gophers are getting votes tomorrow. Likely that they are the only undefeated power conference team that isn't ranked.

 

[ethomasp31]

Impressive win. Wish I had been able to watch.

Thought you weren't going to watch them this year....
