NCAA Tournament and Gopher Basketball on the Bubble Watch

Time to look at the bubble and where the Gophers sit. After losing to Michigan at the buzzer on Tuesday night, where to the Gophers sit and what do they need to do in the near term to bolster their chances?

Current Status...

Precariously IN

With a few really nice wins, a solid non-conference schedule to go along with a 13-5 record, the Gophers would be safely in...for now.

The Resume

Record: 14-5
NCAA Net Ranking: 65
Record v NET 1-50: 3-2

Good Wins: @Wisconsin, Washington (N), Nebraska

Bad Losses: @Boston College, @Illinois

The win at Wisconsin was a big one for the resume and would look bigger if they hadn’t dropped their game at Illinois by 27.
