Michigan will be playing in the "Roman Main Event" in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena on both Friday, November 19th & Sunday the 21st. The other teams invited are UNLV, Wichita State, and Arizona. I don't think they have announced the matchups yet.

Tickets went on sale yesterday. Would be great to have a big Michigan crowd, so start buying! Here's the link:

While we are only a few weeks away from a substantial increase in vaccine availability and it is likely anyone over 16 who wants a vaccine will be able to get one in the next several months, we are not quite there yet.   While no one is suggesting that hospitals are going to be overwhelmed, there are states (including Michigan) where numbers are starting to creep up.   It’s.not hard to wear a mask and it is one of the easiest things people can do to limit spread.   Limiting spread (especially since in many places, people under 65 with comorbitities have not yet had a chance to be vaccinated) can save lives.    The life you could potentially save could be a neighbor, a coworker or the family member of someone you know..    Consider wearing a mask for them until more people have been able to get vaccinated.

“Michigan reported 2,048 new coronavirus cases and 27 deaths Tuesday as the daily positive test rate approached 9 percent for the first time since early January.

The cases bring the seven-day average to 1,951, up from 1,795 on Tuesday. It was 1,250 a week ago, an increase of 56 percent.

Michigan now has the nation’s seventh highest rate of new daily cases per 100,000, with 22 confirmed or suspected new daily cases per 100,000. Just 10 days ago, the state had the 43rd highest rate.

The percent of coronavirus tests coming back positive has risen sharply in the past week, to 8.6 percent of the 20,900 tests reported Tuesday coming back positive. That’s up from 5.6 percent just eight days ago.

The rate had hovered about 3.4-3.6 percent from mid-February until early March when it began rising. Hospitalizations rose again too, up 30 from Monday to 1,124 COVID-19 patients.”

Fly from Ann Arbor to Vegas Friday morning, check out the evening game, get on a redeye across the country to make the Maryland football game in College Park, and then reverse the process to watch the second game on Sunday! Seems like a full weekend

Bracket Note / Thread Jack —

It appears Jalen Wilson - former M target and current Kansas star (?) player is out for the tourney.  
 

I followed some links at the IU site Brian linked on the front page and ended up on a KU site seeing a quote from Self noting that 3 players didn’t make the trip to Indy but 2 of them -who had already been in CoVid protocol  - and were named - would hopefully be joining the team in Indy prior to their opener.  The 3rd player not making the trip was Wilson.  There was no mention of him by name BUT some reference of “doing the math” in regard to the positive test that caused KU to exit the Big 12 tourney.

TLDR - be wary of picking Kansas in your bracket
