**Minnesota at Indiana**

-- Time could be running out on Richard Pitino as the men’s head basketball coach at Minnesota. The Gophers have lost six games in a row and nine of their past 10, going 2-8 ATS during this stretch. The 35-year-old son of Rick Pitino is in his fifth season at the helm. He has taken Minnesota to only one NCAA Tournament appearance, although he did win the NIT in his initial campaign. Pitino has an 89-73 overall record. His team needs to get hot immediately starting Friday night at Assembly Hall in Bloomington.

-- Most books had Indiana (13-12 SU, 14-11 ATS) listed as a seven-point favorite Thursday night.

-- Archie Miller’s first IU team is 10-5 both SU and ATS in 15 home games.

-- Indiana is No. 110 in the RPI, going winless in eight games against Top-50 opponents. The Hoosiers are 4-8 versus the Top 100, posting wins at home over Penn St., Northwestern and Maryland, in addition to a neutral-court scalp of Notre Dame.

-- Indiana snapped a four-game losing streak in Monday’s 65-43 win at Rutgers as a two-point road favorite. The spread cover improved IU’s ATS record to 10-3 in its past 13 games. Juwan Morgan was the catalyst for the Hoosiers, producing 24 points, eight rebounds, two blocks, one steal and two assists without a turnover. Morgan knocked down 10-of-14 FGAs and 3-of-4 from downtown. Robert Johnson added 19 points on 7-of-13 shooting from the field.

-- Morgan leads the Hoosiers in scoring (16.8 points per game), rebounding (7.3 RPG), field-goal percentage (59.1%) and blocked shots (1.3 BPG).

-- Minnesota (14-12 SU, 10-15 ATS) has limped to a 2-6 SU record and a 3-5 ATS ledger in eight road assignments this year.

-- Minnesota is No. 123 in the RPI with its 2-5 record against the Top 50 and 3-10 mark versus the Top 100.

-- Reggie Lynch remains on suspension and hasn’t played since Jan. 3. He was averaging 10.1 points, 8.0 rebounds and 4.1 blocked shots per game. Amir Coffey (14.0 PPG, 4.1 RPG & 3.3 APG) has missed three consecutive contests and is ‘questionable’ at IU due to a shoulder injury. Dupree McBrayer (9.5 PPG, 2.5 APG & 2.3 RPG) is also ‘questionable’ after leaving the Nebraska game with a lower-leg injury.

-- Minnesota returned home Tuesday after dropping a 76-73 decision at Michigan in overtime last weekend. The Gophers raced out to a 7-0 lead vs. Nebraska to force Tim Miles to call a timeout. Before long, though, the Cornhuskers had a 15-point lead and it wasn’t even halftime yet. Pitino’s bunch would rally to make it interesting, but Miles’s team improved to 13-1 ATS in its last 14 games by collecting a 91-85 triumph as a 3.5-point road underdog. In the losing effort for Minnesota, Jordan Murphy contributed 22 points, 13 rebounds, one block and four assists compared to just one turnover. Nate Mason dropped 34 points on the Cornhuskers, draining 7-of-9 from deep, and he also had six assists and only one turnover. Isaiah Washington finished with 10 points, four rebounds and eight assists without a turnover.

-- Murphy paces the Gophers in scoring (17.7 PPG), rebounding (11.7 RPG) and FG percentage (53.5%). Mason (16.4 PPG) is burying 41.4 percent of his 3-balls and has an excellent 109/34 assist-to-turnover ratio.

-- Indiana has won four of the last five head-to-head meetings, going 3-2 ATS in the process. When these teams met at The Barn on Jan. 6, IU captured a 75-71 win as an eight-point road underdog. The 146 combined points fell ‘under’ the 149.5-point total. Johnson dropped 28 points on the Gophers, making 3-of-7 attempts from 3-point land. Johnson also had seven rebounds, seven assists and a pair of steals. Morgan and Justin Smith added 20 points apiece, while Morgan snapped 12 rebounds and blocked four shots. Nate Mason scored a team-best 22 points and dished out nine assists compared to only one turnover in the losing effort. Jordan Murphy finished with 18 points and 10 boards for the Gophers, who also got 18 points out of McBrayer.

-- The underdog is 21-7 ATS in the past 28 meetings of this Big Ten rivalry.

-- The ‘under’ is 7-0-1 in Indiana’s past eight games to improve to 15-9-1 overall, 8-7 in its home tilts.

-- The ‘over’ is 14-11 for the Gophers, 5-3 in their road contests. They’ve seen the ‘over’ cash in four straight games.

-- Fox Sports 1 will provide the telecast at 7:30 p.m. Eastern.
