The Gopher men's basketball team downed Penn State 75-69 Thursday night to improve to 10-7 overall and 4-3 in the Big Ten.  Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON today.  He thinks if the Gophers can finish no worse than 10-10 in the Big Ten they should make the NCAA tournament.  Listen below.
