IT’S GAME DAY! ?
I know our football lovers on this board outnumber our basketball lovers but I, for one, am crazy excited for today! 4pm can’t get here soon enough!
4pm, ESPN2, GO BLUE!!

Sir, this is a hockey blog.

My bad ☹️
November 25th, 2020 at 9:23 AM ^
Beat me to it!
November 25th, 2020 at 7:13 AM ^
I'm sooooo curious to see how all these players mesh as a team.
November 25th, 2020 at 7:21 AM ^
I think chemistry with the transfers is going to be a huge factor. I’m interested to see if Nunez has made a jump this year. Of course freshman are always intriguing, especially Dickinson. And I really think Johns is going to be the x-factor and potentially a 6th of the year candidate. LFG!
November 25th, 2020 at 8:22 AM ^
If that video of the team after Chaundee’s waiver was approved is any indication then I think they’ll be fine. Hopefully that transfers to real games. I could see it taking them a bit to get rolling though.
November 25th, 2020 at 7:21 AM ^
BG looks beyond solid as a team. This is gonna be a good test
November 25th, 2020 at 7:27 AM ^
Football? We have a football team? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Basketball, hockey and baseball is all I know about. We haven’t had a legit football team for at least 4 years.

Great way to kick off a long weekend. Also excited the first game of the year is on tv and I don't have to find some weird link to stream it!
November 25th, 2020 at 8:16 AM ^
Where are the pictures of players wearing number zero?? Novak, Nunez.....uh.....Josh Moore?
November 25th, 2020 at 8:50 AM ^
Uh... David Dejulius?

Just another reminder of what I don’t get to see in person. The last eight years - one football, 4 or 5 basketball, 5 or 6 hockey home tilts were missed. 2021 ( and a vaccine) can’t come soon enough.

You have my complete sympathy, Scanner Blue.
Going "cold turkey" from those three sports and all the other U of M sports during which you normally should/would have been ushering/assisting fans must be extremely difficult.

This day is turning into what the last unofficial summer weekend used to be for me! A team that has B1G championships in the last 20 years and made it to Championship games! Let’s GOOOOO!!!!!
November 25th, 2020 at 9:12 AM ^
Curious to see the guard rotation today. Wonder if Zeb is still banged up, if not I’m excited to see how he looks out there.
November 25th, 2020 at 9:52 AM ^
Great read on Zeb if interested. Sometimes The Blade will let you read articles for free, sometimes not.

So that is Wagner's mom that everyone is raving about

HaHa! I would have spit my morning coffee all over my keyboard when I read that if I'd had coffee in my mouth when I read it.
November 25th, 2020 at 10:34 AM ^
Try this one instead, funny man:

looks like Beilein over her right shoulder
November 25th, 2020 at 9:51 AM ^
Honestly, I need this game. Some semblance of normalcy. I was weening myself off of DirectTV and working toward dropping cable/satellite, but I was able to add the ESPN networks and Tennis Channel back for $11 a month. Here's to hoping.
November 25th, 2020 at 9:56 AM ^
Got a friend coming over for the game and some tall boys in the fridge. I AM READY.

I correctly guessed malt liquor, anyway. 8.1% ABV. Enjoy, but don't drive for a while.
November 25th, 2020 at 11:27 AM ^
I'm going to be a complete degenerate tonight and do nothing productive after the game. Girlfriend went home for Thanksgiving. I'll play some xbox tonight and smoke weed.
November 25th, 2020 at 10:23 AM ^
Roast the Green Falcons!

Football? What the heck is football?
This is a basketball blog my good sir, and quite frankly 4pm needs to hurry up and get here RIGHT NOW!
It's basketball season bois!
November 25th, 2020 at 11:17 AM ^
I will say, normally I've taken basketball merely as a welcome addition to the viewing schedule at the time of the year, but this time around, it will - I am hopeful - serve as a distraction from the other thing.
November 25th, 2020 at 11:38 AM ^
Love when I come home for Thanksgiving and my mom plans something at 4PM today after I told her yesterday that the first basketball game is today... looks like I'm going to have to record it ugh
November 25th, 2020 at 1:00 PM ^
Yeah, good call... you can always watch the recording of your family thing after the game... plus you'll have it for posterity to pull out to re-watch during future family events... Win-Win-Win
(The 3rd Win is for UM Hoops, obvs!)

Looking for Juwan to demonstrate how good of a coach he is this year. He did an okay job last year with star player injuries and players recruited for a different system. Now he has a year under his belt and more players that he wanted. I expect him to be great, and if he is, with his recruiting chops the sky is the limit. Go Blue!

Welp - Oakland doesn't look like it will provide much of a test for M ...currently down 36-6 to unranked Xavier.
