Michigan Basketball vs. MSU Open Thread
What else do you want to talk about?!? Huge game where somebody's season hits rock bottom. Michigan's slide continues and the season series vs. the Spartans is lost, or MSU loses 3 in a row and is out of the B1G race, and, well, loses to Michigan. Can't get much bigger without a title on the line. The road to a long Tourney run starts here. Go Blue!

I think we will see more visitors next week when we play Indiana. It seems like the coaches have picked that week to have lots of kids on campus.
247sports confirmed that Jalen Embry and Tim Cason II will be on campus next week.

Positive Thoughts
Positive Thoughts
Pardon my french, but I can't stand the smug-ass, woe-is-us bullshit on the board this morning...so here are my assorted thoughts about 40 minutes prior to tip-off:
PSU was just a bad dream
We're undefeated at home
MSU is going to look dumb when they all start smacking the floor like a horde of the Heartless in Kingdom Hearts.
Blues Brothers Dance
Maybe Hoke will sit next to Beilein again
I still love this team

Pride is on the line. B1G championship probably outta reach, but splitting with State will help heal some wounds and restore some confidence.
HINT TO BIGS: Don't react to Nix's first shoulder twitch post move. Or the second, third, or fourth twitch. He only makes an offensive move after 4 shoulder twitches.
My parting shot: Badgers lost to Purdue.

Hi all,
Long time reader. Just made an acct because I'm in Istanbul and am trying to find a place to watch the game. Any help is appreciated.
I was banking on the espn app but of course it's a CBS game and first row doesn't work either.
Thanks again,

is small. Didn't even fill the bleachers, there's a lot of older guys here that aren't students but bought the tickets. MSU parents then take up another chunk. Nothing in 130. And we're broken up a little bit, so I wouldn't expect anything like the OSU atmosphere, although I'm hoping for the best

Interesting Prediction...
Interesting Prediction...
Team Rankings posted its projected box scores and, for the board's information, they have estimated the following shooting percentages despite predicting a Michigan win:
| Shooting | Michigan St. | Michigan |
Field Goal % |
49.00% |
45.00% |
2 Point Shooting % |
54.30% |
50.00% |
3 Point Shooting % |
36.40% |
35.80% |
Free Throw % |
70.00% |
69.00% |
What they do is run simulated games and seasons and take an average of the results. Our home average effective FG% is 51.04%, better than MSU's away effective FG% by about 2%. Hopefully, it's closer to something like this.

Are there any recruits attending? I'd imagine Michigan would have some in-state kids stopping by. Let's hope the defense picks up and we come out fast for once.
