After a completely uneventful Tuesday, the games on Wednesday night brought the drama and more than a little good news for the Minnesota. While the Gophers have always controlled their own destiny with regards to a double bye, some key losses were always going to be appreciated as the possible scenarios for Big Ten Tournament seeds continues to shrink. In that regard, Wednesday night was a success for Minnesota fans and players alike.
Northwestern beats Michigan, 67-65. This one could be seen as a win for the Gophers either way. That ending tho.
