They are damn lucky and better get it together.  This game was almost lost by sloppy play, nothing else.  Someone better sit down Walton and talk about ball control!

That was the basketball equivalent of the Akron game. Tennessee is much better than Akron, but it feels about the same: M narrowly avoided a historic embarrassment.

God will people stop bringing up Akron everytime M almost loses! Holy hell, Tennessee deserves juuuust a but more respect than that. It was close because they're a good team, and you just can't sleep on a good team.

Win is a win, but 3 straight games where we have gone to sleep in the second half. Hope the boys learn a lesson soon. Pedal to the metal Boyz all the time!

Everyone texting me saying how the charge was bullshit. No mention of any other calls and no mention that we would have had the steal anyway. Still how do we choke so badly? I was so calm the whole game because it was in the bag and then that.

After some deep breathing exercises, I agree but this kind of game give me flashbacks of oh so many losses like this.  They have work to do and this will probably serve them well.

Also, they typically get better in turnaround games.  The top 3 in the Big Ten can play with anybody!  Although I want to see a Mich vs. MSU National Championship Game, I am happy Michigan is in the Elite 8 after how this season started.

Everything is icing on the cake for me now!
