FULLER S FOUR THINGS TO WATCH:
Foul trouble for Robbins
In the first four wins against ranked opponents for the Gophers this season,
Liam Robbins looked the part of a top-five center in the Big Ten. The 7-foot junior averaged 21.3 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.5 blocks to help lead his team to victories against Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, and Iowa.
One thing those games had in common was Robbins avoiding foul trouble, not having more than three fouls in any of them. The Drake transfer provides a game-changing inside presence when he s on the floor, but the Gophers struggle mightily to replace him when Robbins is on the bench.
