I'm sure we'll have the posters that bring the fire Tubby chant...give these young kids credit. It's the real deal. Look who finished the game...four freshmen and a junior.

Glad they won. Really am. But good God, can Tubby ever devise an inbounds play??

Where has this play been all year? Nice job tonight. The Refs were atrocious. Hope they send this game to the NCAA for a review.

Outstanding win against a pretty good team. Middle Tenn. had won 13 in a row on that court. No small feat and they had to overcome some questionable officiating I might add. On to NY!

Was that BB,or football out there?I tell you what, next season if they have a lead late in the game, no way,they will blow it.Have to be able to get the ball in bounds.

OK, I know it's just the NIT. But that was one of the gutsiest wins I've ever seen, as the Gophers fought off a hostile crowd, questionable calls and a football-like defense from MTSU. If that doesn't build character for next year, I don't know what would.

Alot of good things to talk about. Rodney was excellent on both ends - outplayed Denby, MTS's leading scorer and a quality player. Andre played with poise and skill. Interior passing between Rodney and Eliason was fun to watch. Coleman plays some solid D ... They put him on the shooter in the 1st half and he shut him down. I like Austin but he needs to add some muscle - his D is suspect. Eliason needs to be in the weight room too. Hey, GREAT WIN! Good luck in NY ... Go Gophers!
