Favorite plays of the game
All I can say watching that game is Wow! These guys are on fire.
What are everyones favorite plays? I'd love to see a gif or video clip of:
1) McGary driving the lane from the top of the key,
2) Spike's steel and double pump lay up, and
3) All 6 of the Stauskas' threes.
That two play combo stopped the bleeding and put the foot back on the throat. Awesome.
That sequence felt like the difference between this game turning into Wichita State-OSU and this game turning into Michigan-VCU. I think we would have won either way, but damn, my heart is happy that it played out this way.
Pretty much.
AWESOME!
this one has my vote
This is my favorite. But there is really no wrong answer here.
was clutch...
robinsons 1 handed alley-oop wasn't bad either.
and i forget who but somebody got a nasty block on a florida fast break.

The fans in the stadium needed that play. It had calmed way way down and that play brought life back to a very Michigan friendly crowd.
When Trey got the steal at the end of the half, Stauskas hitting threes, and Spike getting the steal.
1. Spike's steal
2. Nik's last 3
3. Spike's 3
4. Vogrich 3
5. GRIII one handed slam of the Burke pass
Stauskas behind the back pass for the Mcgary slam.
GRIIIs alley oop basically slapped Florida for good. It's awesome that we're deconstructing power houses. Kansas and Florida have been dominant teams for years and we owned UF and dethroned Kansas. Awesome.
It sort of redeems that 2009 season to me.
Spike's QB pass, Spike's steal, Spike's three...
Spike's laser beam pass to Horford for sure. They had just stripped Stauskas and and the trap set up on Spike. It could have easily been back to back turnovers and open layups and again stopped their mini-run
He had all of the confidence in the world at that point, and knew he was going to be on point all game.
ALL OF THEM!!!!!! GO BLUE!!!!
Every single steal on D.
However Spike's steal and score was awesome.
...someone needs to .gif that play.
The one handed alley oop was the most exciting/demoralizing play, but the McGary drive followed by the Spike steal and layup were the dagger after Florida was trying to claw back in. IIRC they had it down to 14 at that point and those two buckets got it back to 18.
Anything Spike did
Vogrich's 3
The inbounds pass stolen for an easy lay up, The Burke Alley-oop pass to GR3 for the dunk or any of the other steal for fast break points. The list goes on and on it was a beautiful game.
INBOUNDS
With 33.5 seconds to go, Eso Akunne to Josh Bartlestein, who dribbled/held the ball for several seconds, then handed it off to Corey Person to dribble out the last 8 seconds of the game!
Go BLUE!!!!!
like it was a softball behind the back.The more time he gets,the sicker he will play. Somebody please post vid.
That Spike double clutch was symbolic of the entire season for these guys.
Did anyone else see Vogrich playing the chello on the bench after big plays? He did it again while cutting down the net.
I play one myself, and as an admirer of the instrument, I have to correct spelling --
"'Cello," or "Cello,"
is an abbreviation for the Italian "Violoncello," itself a diminutive of "Violone," augmentative of "Viola."
In Vogrich's case, I had the idea it was more the size of a contrabass.
ALL THE PLAYZ
Florida was threatening when he made that steal and basket. Heads up play.
Every Stauskas three is tied for second.
Stauskus behind the back to McGary. Was early, but showed once again the moxie that kid has.
He fills in perfectly
But I can't imbed their code in the mgoblog editor
