Go Blue Today
Play the spoiler boys...and get in gear for the miracle run to the Big Ten Tourney Championship, where Bielien will catapult this team to it's second straight NCAA tournament birth.
In all honesty, beating MSU at the Breslin and playing spoiler will be reward enough.
Go Blue. Manny and DeShawn...it's your day.
I thought we should have won last meeting but anything can happen in rivalry games! Go Blue
It was proved that scrappy kids catching fire can be dangerous to top teams. If Kyle Kuric can do it, there's no reason Novak and/or Douglass can't.
Replace scrappy with gritty.
I honestly believe that UM can make a run in the BT tournament. We are not a bad team. We are a team that plays bad. If we put a couple good games together in the 2nd round and 3rd round, we can be in the finals.
Sidenote: I also can see the team not making it past the 1st round. Dang you logic!
Where unabashed optimism meets reality...
I don't think we're a bad team, but we are a team dependent on outside shooting, and that's often the first thing to go when you have to play on tired legs (see the tourney in Orlando back in November). Winning the BTT would involve four wins in four days.
On the plus side, we tend to play very well when we have a lot of rest, and we do for today's game.
Go out there and pay them back for the last game and ruin their senior day.
GO BLUE!!!
finally got in sync. Problem is E. Lansing might burn tonight.
Since when is E Lansing burning a problem?
With a prevailing west wind our Ontario friends have a major public health issue with the extreme toxic fallout.
Other than that...no problem.
Maybe a bad choice of words.
No doubt that this is the perfect setup to salvage some of the pain the team and its fans have incurred this season. Here's to hoping we are able to pull it off today.
I think we have a good shot at winning the tournament. We will be tough to beat.
"...and get in gear for the miracle run to the Big Ten Tourney Championship, where Bielien will catapult this team to it's second straight NCAA tournament birth."
Is it sad that since Raback said this, I now expect it to happen?
At this point I'd take an NIT championship with the way the season has gone. I'm conflicted with whether it would be better to go one and done in the dance or win the NIT.
SWAT THAT SHIT PEEDI!
