Not sure if you've heard yet but the Golden Gophers got a #5 seed in the upcoming NCAA Tournament and will face off against the #12 Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders on Thursday in Milwaukee. While Gopher fans were quite ecstatic with the news, our neighbors across the border were not, especially since they were left as the #8 seed in an 8/9 match up this weekend.
It surprised us, it surprised them, but holy smokes did it surprise Gophers MBB head coach Richard Pitino! Check out his reaction to seeing the news come across the television screen at the Gophers watch party!
