Same foot Caris broke last May. He never looked 100% this season. Big hit to a young, struggling team. Walton's had nagging ankle issues and Irvin's had an elbow thing...

Well, time for the freshmen to step up and help get us to the NIT...

Tune in to the BTN and watch Michigan's 3rd team run with Rutgers...

Wisconsin, what was your excuse?

 

[MI Nightmare]

Anybody wearing a Michigan jersey will be seeing the court tonight. Man-to-man, 2-3, 1-3-1, 4 different PGs, 4 different centers... Wow, this is like open tryouts.

It'll just take one guy getting hot from either side to pull out a W here tonight.

 

[wingsauce7]

complete ass whuppin being given to Iowa tonight by Becky..

 

[Smart]

Wow. If we play like that in March, we'll be cutting down the nets in Indy. That was as good of a performance, especially offensively, as I can ever remember.

Michigan avoids getting swept by Rutgers/NJIT.

That would have been an ignominious feat to say the least.

This was also against Iowa, keep in mind and at home. They are basically the equivalent of about a 9 or 10 seed at this point.

1.54 points per possession against a top 100 defense is freaky. KenPom doesn't give it out for free anymore, but I have to imagine that is one of the highest offensive efficiency ratings of the last several years. It moved us from #3 to #1 in offensive efficiency.

No doubt Wisconsin played great last night. All I'm saying is you have to take into account the opposing team. Not one metric considers them to be even a top 40 team.

 

[Wamu]

Wow Wisky scored 82 last night. They have not put up that many points in a game since the days of Michael Finley!

That joke might be funny if we didn't score more points than 85% of teams this year.

They've scored in the 80s 7 times already this season, and 100s last year. It's one of the best offensive teams in the country 2 years running.

 

[LambeauLegs]

I thought I saw or heard a stat of just 1 turn over for the Badgers in the game

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Yeah these last 2 years are not the point and laugh at the offense Badgers teams.


They are way more offensive oriented and really, really good at it.

 

[wingsauce7]

Yep, 1 turnover with 2 min left in the game on a shot clock violation.

 

[tducey]

Wisconsin's playing some good basketball this year, them and Kentucky have to be considered favourites to win it all this year.

Yeah, it sure beats the drag em out, half court, defensive eyesore, throw up a last minute shot to win, that went on for years.

What was that score vs. Penn State a few years back in the Big Ten Tournament, 35-32?

 

[NDHoosier101]

Maryland fans were being so fucking cocky. Glad we whooped their ass tonight.

Nice win for IU. Looking like a solid single digit seed for the NCAA's at the moment.

 

[wingsauce7]

Hawkeyes gonna be in trouble if Aaron White has to miss games to injury..
