Gophers are now ONE of the last FOUR BYES

HUGE GAME tomorrow for the Gophers as they go to Lawrence and face the Jayhawks.

This will be the BIGGEST test for the Gophers this season. A WIN would be a B1G win for this Gopher squad

Michigan is just running Notre Dame out of the gym right now..

Michigan isn't allowing them to set up their defense.. 1 or 2 passes and it's a basket for Michigan..

Michigan place with such a FUN pace... get the ball and push it uo the floor and score..

Swoards, Olson and Hollway are just so good and just Sophomores..

IF everything goes well for Michigan.. they should get a double bye for the B1G Tournament in March

Duke's offense is ... MIA
