What do we have to do to get a foul call against Sullinger and their whole team? Every team down the court they all reach in and slap the ball. Sullinger just bodies everyone and no foul call ever.

Will someone just elbow that fat bastard? PLEASE. It's a rivalry. Elbow that fat slob. In the face. Make him bleed. Make him feel the pain. Quit being sissies.

UMMaizeRage just tweeted:

"Superfan was just told that if he banged his cowbell, he'd be kicked out. The same one he banged yesterday and is approved by the Big 10."

Not a bad half. Morgan needs to stay out of foul trouble. Smotz just can't do anything with Sullinger. Usual caveat about Hightower but on the whole, a far better performance then yesterday.

At least they keep talking (and by keep talking, I mean, they've mentioned it once or twice) that Michigan deserves to be in the tourny.

They only say that while taking breaths and switching who is going down on Sullinger and OSU.

Solid half for the boys, they have to feel pretty good about how they played. Second half keys: Morgan needs to stay in the game and we can't let Diebler beat us with 3 bombs.

then foul while the play is still in progress.

He always fouls after the play is over in frustration . . . after a steal, after a missed rebound, etc.

Teach him that he's lost that particular battle.  Give it up, stay in the game, and go on to the next one.

All in all, very satisfied.  While OSU has had the lead for longer, they haven't led by more than 4.  Definitely a much better looking first half than yesterday.

That's an interesting comercial. Sealy is now touting the springiness of their beds as being better for sex.

Know it sounds crazy, but if there are any other fans here in Zurich, I got Hooters to put on the game. Only place in town, so far as I can tell. Geh Blau!

Diebler: shut the hell up.  You fouled the hell out of Morris on a drive and got away with it, so don't bitch about an out-of-bounds call.

If I were playing him, I'd be very tempted to give him a whack in his gigantic schnozz.

Hardaway and Morgan need each other.  Hardaway can drive and dump off to Morgan if Morgan would be more aggressive low.  Morris is able to throw up a lot of stuff and get the foul, but Hardaway needs to dump to Morgan.

They are deserving of the number one overall seed, that is a talented bunch. The best that money can buy, if such a thing happens of course. We can still win this game, but we are going to need to shoot a high percentage of shots as well as keep up high intensity, GO BLUE!

Did anyone else see Morris get pushed in the back on that last drive to the hoop.  Zebras "letting them play" if it wasn't for the call against Morris driving against Sullinger a couple minutes or so before.  Poor Sulinger flopped to the floor.  Can you believe it?  He has 80 pounds on Morris.  Same official watching both plays.  aaarrggghh!
