Minnesota - 61, Indiana - 42

Thanks to CBS regional coverage, which decided that we folks in Durham would enjoy watching unranked Kentucky play unranked Arkansas, I wasn't able to see the latest debacle in The Barn.

As always, I was worried heading into the game. I always worry, even when we're playing a team that is winless in the B10 in six tries, including home losses against Northwestern and Michigan (by 16!). But even in my most pessimistic mood I didn't expect this - to not even be competitive.

CBS Sportsline has a great feature - Full Play-by-Play for games. It might even be more disgusting than watching the game. Here's some excerpts:

18:18 MN Zach Puchtel made Layup, Assist J'son Stamper
16:17 MN J'son Stamper made Layup, Assist Adam Boone
15:26 MN Vincent Grier made Layup
9:42 MN Spencer Tollackson made Layup
8:12 MN Adam Boone made Layup
5:51 MN Maurice Hargrow made Layup, Assist Vincent Grier
4:29 MN Vincent Grier made Driving Layup
2:35 MN Zach Puchtel made Layup
25.0 MN Vincent Grier made Tip-in
17:58 IN Marco Killingsworth missed Layup
16:08 MN J'son Stamper made Layup
6:53 IN Marco Killingsworth missed Layup
5:46 IN Marco Killingsworth missed Layup
5:39 IN Marco Killingsworth missed Tip-in
5:01 MN Vincent Grier made Layup
2:55 IN Marco Killingsworth missed Layup
1:23 MN Vincent Grier made Driving Layup

Bear in mind that Minnesota is a team that was trying desparately to find ways to score points.

I guess layups work pretty good.

Jinkies - we have games against UConn, at Wisconsin, and at Illinois coming up. This could get ugly. Er... uglier.
