FULLER S FOUR THINGS TO WATCH:
Carr carrying the load
In the first half of last Saturday s 78-74 loss at Nebraska, Richard Pitino was desperate for a spark when he shouted to Marcus Carr on the court that the Gophers needed him to score 40 points that night.
Easier said than done, right. Not for the U s inflammable junior point guard. Carr scored 21 of his career-high 41 points in the second half, including 15 of the team s last 19 points in the last 7 minutes and 54 seconds of the game. Almost willed us to victory, Pitino said. I m proud of him. He showed a lot of heart.
