I think we're going to win tonight. No reason why, just a hunch.

Here, I'll just sum it up real quick so we don't have to keep checking. We can't make a shot. We can't play defense. We lose. Sound familiar? Edit: was being mostly sarcastic and trying to summarize the pain we've gone through all season.

There just has to be somebody on that bench better than Stu. Not trying to be a dick, but he is consistently wide open game after game and just throwing up bricks, with the occasional 2 shot hot streak now and than..

Defense has been real solid so far. rebounding and shooting are obviously struggling, but you can't fault the effort. I would love to see Morris attack the hoop a little more as the game progresses.

I should be upset but I can't help but laugh at how bad/ugly this game is. Seriously, you just let a rebound go through your hands and an Illinois player gets it and drains an open 3??? wow

we'd be awesome at horseshoes. won't win many games when you're shooting 20 percent from the field. It still baffles me how our shooting efficiency has plummeted from last year at almost equal shot selection.

Lavin keeps talking about Illinois "letting Michigan hang around." Dude, if we were shooting merely poorly, and not catastrophically bad, we'd probably be ahead.
