Minnesota defeated Niagara 107-81 at Williams Arena. The Gophers move to 3-0 on the season. Five players from Minnesota scored in double figures.
Let’s make one point very clear. The outcome of this game was never in doubt from the moment it was announced on the schedule. The Gophers are flat out more talented than Niagara even on an off night. Nevertheless, tonight the Gophers were only up three points with a little over 11 minutes to play. Niagara appeared to have a lot of confidence and was making a number of three pointers.
