Sweet Sixteen Muppets!
Every other is ovah! Terrance Williams II puts it back, Eli Brooks gets it back, and Michigan is going back to the Sweet Sixteen after knocking off #3 Tennessee!
And because you can’t have one without the other.
AND THEY BROKE THE CURSE!!!!
Terrence Williams needs to play 30 minutes every game!
As does Frankie apparently!
Can't argue with that. Love Frankie!
I dunno. Seems like Coach Howard played him exactly the right amount!
Touché globules
True and I can't argue that, but dang...
He's really a great role player and he's great at the entry pass.
Sweet sweet muppets. Win it all baby. Go Blue!!!!
Wow… just wow! No Jones, no Houstan 3s, tons of turnovers and yet SWEET SIXTEEN WOOOHOOO! 〽️
And UT made 10-12 free throws.
LETS GOOOOOO
When Xavier, hmm, I mean Brooks hit that sky hook, I knew we had it. I forgave him for loosing the ball out of bounds the possession prior.
Definitely huge.
Screw the S E C.
First team in B1G history to make FIVE straight sweet sixteens!
Ahhhhh!!!!
Keep winning so this euphoria persists til early April. T Will with the key contributions. Very high hoop IQ
One hell of a Saturday! Damn that was great
Man I really thought they were gonna screw the pooch with the press. But great defense down the stretch and clutch FT's.
Go Blue!! One game at a time! And maybe another big game against the Buckeyes next weekend. Bring it!
Yes Let's go bucks. I hope we can beat villanova. We got Kyle Young and Zed Key back.
How much $$ to get Pump it up set to Muppets?
Okay, I said we'd win by 13 and we won by 8. So sue me! My god was that fun.
Muppets!! Gogh Bluegh!!!
They need to keep wearing those retro unis 〽️
They need to keep wearing them until we can just call them "unis"
So many heroes:
- Hunter was unbelievable. Absolutely carried the team for huge stretches.
- Brooks, holy shit. That man has ice in his veins. Clutch, clutch, clutch. And boy, every so often he attaches rockets to his shoes - he got UP on that three point play!
- JWill. Came in and made play after play, just when we needed him
- Collins, again stepping up and playing controlled, steady ball
- Moussa, tons of blocks, boards and energy
- Coach Howard, for keeping the boys calm, making critical subs, and somehow sneaking Zavier Simpson into the lineup just when we needed him
- Special props to Candace Parker, who blamed Peyton Manning for the loss, saying "Webber showed up, where was Manning"? I am totally on board with this.
Go Blue! Sweet 16 Again!!!!
Take that, Peyton
I’m pretty sure Dickinson told the Tenn mascot to fuck off or something similar. He did it after he had the block at the end. He ends up near the cheerleaders and the guy in the Smokey costume. He’s there for a beat and then turns and suddenly all the Tennessee cheerleaders and mascot point at him and look all super offended.
BTW, if anyone is wondering, I sincerely hope Hunter did that. Because that would be awesome.
Go Blue!
What a reward! They may get to stuff the Suckeyes again!
Well done, Juwan & guys. Terrence, Eli, Hunter and the rest - great effort and points in the clutch.
Go Blue!
Devante “Scott Sterling” Jones

So... do we fire Warde now? Or just Bakich?

Frankie Collins...what could have been if he was the man from the start. None the less, sweet 16 bound and we'll be betting favorites no mater who we play.

OSU game wasn't long ago and is the reason we're here today at all. Put some respect on Devante's name

We were in that position (win or don't make the tournament) in large part because of how poorly Jones played for 3/4th the year. In addition, Ohio State was missing their most versitile defender in Young and their best guard was sick. Thank God!
That doesn't take away the performance Jones had. It was special but it was also the perfect storm for him to showcase himself. Zero ball pressure and the worst help defense imaginable by Ohio State.
If you can't see we are a better team on both ends with Frankie Collins getting major minutes, you have no idea what you're looking at.

I have been very fortunate in my time as a UM BB fan. Some wild runs, upset, and performances. This is honestly up there, beating a no brainer top 10 team to make the Sweet 16 5 times straight, after all the opposing fans and /r/CBB bitching about Juwan and saying we didn't belong in the tournament. Very Sweet.
