Minnesota Basketball: Previewing Harvard

If it feels like you’ve already aged a few years this season, you’re not alone. The Gophers have given us enough peaks and valleys to fill an entire season, and we’re just scratching the surface of this year’s slate. The non-conference schedule mercifully comes to a close on Saturday as Minnesota hosts an under-performing Harvard squad.

The Crimson come into the game at 5-7 with a couple head-scratching losses to Holy Cross and Cal State-Fullerton. They edged St. Joseph’s earlier in the season, but haven’t had a whole lot to report in a season where they’re expected to compete for a league championship.
