As unbelievable as it seems, the men's Gopher basketball team upset the best team in the country last night. The Gophers beat the Hoosiers 77-73 in front of some very happy and surprised Gopher fans.
The Gophers have actually been pretty bad in the Big Ten as of late, having lost eight of their last eleven games, but they once again proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that there are no really great teams in college ball.
The Gophers punched their ticket to March Madness last night, not that they have much chance of success once they get there. Last night was THEIR moment for this season. I take nothing away from them accomplishing that.
In fact, oddly enough, I feel something I haven't felt for quite a while, Minnesota Pride.
Go Gophers! May this truly be what you need to make a run at the national championship.
I might even watch your early round game if it's televised locally.
