BBall win posbang for having to stress that win out
Well that was stressful and unnecessary but I'll take it and we all deserve points for that.
February 24th, 2016 at 8:54 PM ^
I deserve it

Beilein looks pissed.

He's just thinking about having to shovel all that damn snow.

I missed most of the game and turned it on with Michigan up by two; 54-52 or something. The first thing I see is two missed Michigan free throws followed by a Northwestern bucket. I paced around the kitchen and living room until we had a comfortable margin - with 30 seconds left.
KenPom was right! Bang him!

Michigan started the season ranked in the top 20. I dont think anyone was/is calling it a rebuilding season. Even without Caris this is still a team with sweet-sixteen potential if a few guys step up.

Last year was a rebuilding season. This was not supposed to be.

Dawkins showed up big time tonight. And MAAR stepping up as usual. 20 WINS!!
February 24th, 2016 at 8:56 PM ^
More like golf clap than posbang.

and beat a tourney bound team in the BTT I think we may play ourselves into the 7-8 range. I don't want anything that has us going against a #1 or #2 seed the opening weekend, so I'm hoping for either a 6 or 11 seed.
Also, both Clark Kellogg and Bob Valvano were on 105.1 Detroit today, and both guys said this team should be in if the season ended today. I like the good vibes.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:18 PM ^
let's just get one win at a time... Make it to the dance, then round of 32, then see what happens.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:19 PM ^
Depends on what other bubble teams do, but I'd prefer to be a #10 seed as opposed to a #8 or #9 seed. Much better chance of a 2nd round upset against a #2 seed than a #1 seed and there's very little different in the quality of opponent in that 7-10 range.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:46 PM ^
"If we win the next two and beat a tourney bound team in the BTT..."
So four wins in a row, including one @Kohl and another against Iowa?
Don't want to sound harsh, but why are you even considering this scenario?
February 24th, 2016 at 8:57 PM ^
20 wins, a ton of those without CL!
February 24th, 2016 at 8:57 PM ^
I'll take it.
February 24th, 2016 at 8:58 PM ^
Go Blue! Stressful, but they fought through it.
February 24th, 2016 at 8:58 PM ^
I had the worst feeling this would be the night where it all came to a horrible end.
We did manage to find something late despite our struggles with the short rest scenario.
Pretty gutty.
We live to fight another day. Hope they can take advantage of it. LET'S FUCKING DO SOMETHING WITH THIS!
February 24th, 2016 at 8:59 PM ^
Bang me. Last day of school tomorrow before spring break. I'm glad i wont be stressing about the bubble as much.

He saved our ass. Now, 10 wins in the league and 20 overall. Not bad for missing LeVert and Spike for all of those games.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:02 PM ^
February 24th, 2016 at 9:03 PM ^
Half the big ten has 20 wins and we shouldn't be rebuilding 9 years in.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:13 PM ^
Rebuilding was last year. This year was supposed to be 20+ wins honestly. Were only a couple wins off where we should be. Myself and others are extremely dissapointed with the lack of competitveness in our losses and against our rivals. Not so much the 9 losses.

not that I felt we were playing well, but we had played Xavier, who just beat the #1 team in the country tonight, SMU, who has been essentially an all year long top 25, Connecticut WITH Brimah, and we were actually 11-3 (not 7-4), with a win over Texas with Ridley.
But hey, besides that, your post was spot on.
February 24th, 2016 at 10:49 PM ^
no idea where you got 7-4 from
February 24th, 2016 at 10:17 PM ^
February 24th, 2016 at 9:21 PM ^
Aside from us there are only 5 teams with 20 wins in the B1G. All of them are also in the top-25.
February 24th, 2016 at 9:32 PM ^
Well 6 of 14 is pretty close to .500 and we have a week for Wisconsin and Ohio State to possibly get there. We were losing to Northwestern for 3/4th of the game at home and have tons of blowout losses this year along with bad games to Minny and Rutgers. Unless we have an epiphany in these next two weeks, we're not going anywhere in the tournament. Just taking an objective view of our team.

because I feel like we as fans went through a lot of stress enduring that game and we do indeed deserve good things.
