A little perspective on how awesome this team has been this season. In the long and storied history of Michigan basketball 19-1 is the best start is school history. Here's to making it the second best start in school history.

Why arent there any free live streams? Doesnt anyone want to stream #1? THIS NEVER WOULDVE HAPPENED UNDER RICH ROD
January 30th, 2013 at 7:53 PM ^
Is there a stream? I can't find one on FirstRow

Anyone see PTI? God, I hate Wilbon.
EDIT: ^Beaten to it. I believe Wilbon also said that the Wolverines were going down in Evanston tonight.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:29 PM ^
You know he's a Northwestern alum, right? I don't think he was being 100% serious...
January 30th, 2013 at 6:13 PM ^
All this time I thought your username was ThadMattasGoblin, as in his personal goblin. Your way makes more sense.
Go Blue.

Why the fuck do some NW alums pretend to care about NW sports?
January 30th, 2013 at 6:18 PM ^
The greater Chicago area is in an uproar with everyone trying to beat the traffic and make it home for the 5:30 tip
January 30th, 2013 at 6:14 PM ^
Wilbon made himself look stupid if he really said that because we're at home.

Has to be tough for the kids to get up for a game against a team they ran out of the gym a month ago with Indiana looming on the Horizon. If I were still in the habit of placing wagers, this would probably be a good time to take NW with the boatload of points they are getting.
I don't forsee a loss but I expect a tough, grind it out game that is not put away until there are under 10 minutes left. That said, prove me wrong team!
January 30th, 2013 at 6:18 PM ^
How many announcer "sayings" can you come up with before game time?
"Stauskas is more than a shooter"
"Robinson has an NBA body"
"Beilein and the 1-3-1"
"Mcgary is an energy guy"
At this point these four I just expect to hear every game. Are there others?

January 30th, 2013 at 6:20 PM ^
lol ya good one that is said a lot too.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:22 PM ^
Does anyone else think btn2go is crap?
January 30th, 2013 at 6:23 PM ^
Ya it isn't great but probably better than nothing if ya can't get to a TV.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:22 PM ^
VIP isn't showing it.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:22 PM ^
and the inevitable Burke and Sullinger played at the same high school thing
January 30th, 2013 at 6:24 PM ^
Horford gets the nod. Good call.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:30 PM ^
Thadmattasgoblin,

I have that one from the Northen Michigan game, but its not working anymore
EDIT: I actually got btn2go to work on Chrome. I guess something is wrong with my firefox right now.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:29 PM ^
Don't freak out about the walking boot on Morgan; pretty standard for sprained ankles in athletes.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:30 PM ^
anyone have a live feed online that works? Thanks
January 30th, 2013 at 6:31 PM ^
January 30th, 2013 at 6:33 PM ^
I have to say that it feels good to see and hear "#1 Michigan" in the telecast.
If anyone is interested, the closing line was Michigan by 19.5, with an O/U on 130 (or 128) on most sites.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:33 PM ^
I hear AJ Turner, 2014 G from Warren De La Salle, is at the game.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:34 PM ^
firstrow isnt working. Anyone got another link?
January 30th, 2013 at 6:35 PM ^
finding streams has suddenly become really annoying the past two weeks.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:37 PM ^
no BTN in AZ
January 30th, 2013 at 6:38 PM ^
And BTN2Go won't even let you buy it if you have Comcast.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:39 PM ^
Nothing is working for me...wtf? Usually firstrowsports is money
January 30th, 2013 at 6:34 PM ^
January 30th, 2013 at 6:34 PM ^
January 30th, 2013 at 6:36 PM ^
Wow, awesome extra passing.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:37 PM ^
January 30th, 2013 at 6:37 PM ^

January 30th, 2013 at 6:43 PM ^
January 30th, 2013 at 6:37 PM ^

I guess my btn stream is a bit behind. That was some great ball movement.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:39 PM ^
NW didn't get the scouting report on Stauskas...

Dumb sorority chicks in the first row of the Maize Rage behind the M bench not wearing maize.
The trials and tribulations of having bandwagon fans...
