The Gophers are now on a three-game winning streak after beating Ohio State, Oklahoma State and Florida International, each of which were impressive and convincing. For the first time all season the team is firing on all cylinders and leaders like Daniel Oturu, Marcus Carr and Gabe Kalscheur are scoring in droves and delivering on both sides of the ball. The end result is Oturu leading the conference in rebounds and second in scoring, blocks and field goal percentage. Carr checks in at second in the conference in assists.
The sledding gets a little tougher on Thursday, as the Gophers start the full conference slate on the road at Purdue.
