What was maybe the most complete game of the season, Minnesota went out and beat Purdue 75-73 and advanced to the semi-finals of the Big Ten Tournament.
This was a game where, especially in the second half, Jordan Murphy and Amir Coffey absolutely willed the Gophers to a win over the Big Ten’s co-champ.
Murphy was a beast, scoring 27 points which is the most he has scored against a Big Ten opponent in his career. He also had 8 rebounds and 4 assists. Coffey was very aggressive in the second half driving to the hoop and ended up with 21 points.
