Penn State vs Minnesota Preview
After starting 12-2, Penn State has dropped two games in a row to Rutgers and Wisconsin. The Nittany Lions were among the top 20 teams in the country a week ago, but need to get back on track if they hope to keep their dreams of making it to the Big Dance alive.
What hasn’t helped Penn State is their struggles from deep. The Nittany Lions have shot a miserable 11-for-47 from three-point range. Pat Chambers just wants a his squad to keep shooting.
“The guys have to continue to keep shooting it,” Pat Chambers said at his press conference this week. “Out of the 21 three-point attempts [against Wisconsin], I thought three were bad. I thought all the others were very good, in rhythm, uncontested shots, and you gotta keep taking those.
“It’s going to change,” Chambers added. “As you’ve seen in the [Big Ten], anything can happen, so we just have to stay the course, and keep getting better.”
Penn State is 2-3 in Big Ten play but face a tough route ahead. After facing the Gophers, three of their next five are against ranked teams.
“Somehow we need to get the swagger back,” Chambers said. “They know they have the green light, they never look over to me after a shot’s taken, and I don’t want them to. So they have to have great confidence and keep taking those shots. They’re going to go in. This happens during the course of a year, sometimes you make shots, sometimes you don’t. Hopefully, we can get on a run here.”
Minnesota moved to 9-7 with an upset victory over Michigan in their last game, downing the Wolverines 75-67. Much of the Gophers recent success has been on the back of Daniel Oturu. He collected 22 points, 10 rebounds and two blocks at Michigan State and a whopping 30 points and seven rebounds against Michigan.
Against Michigan, he battled through injury just to add to his heroics, playing 34 minutes.
“It was important for me, regardless of what injury or how I was feeling I was going to go back out there,” Oturu told the Star-Tribune. “I needed to help my team win this game — and that was the most important thing.”
Minnesota is a 2.5-point home favorite.
