Michigan vs Iowa Game Thread

Go Blue! Let’s get that elusive B1G road win!

Eli starting off hot. Really need him to hit those for the spacing.

Brooks with another missed 3.

Simpson helping in the post a bit is a welcome change.

Oops, wrong thread.

Let's Go Blue!

Are we actually helping in the post now?

3 point shooting off to a less than spectacular start.

Sending help against Garza! Finally! 3 pt shooting remains a problem but the offense looks alright.

I miss Livers.

I really hope that gets Eli going a bit, if the slump continues, he should lose minutes to DDJ.

Miracles do happen. Hopefully that will get him started.

We need Eli to get back to form. With him and Livers hitting threes this team has a high ceiling.

We started off well against Minnesota then the bottom fell out. Hopefully we can sustain it tonight.

Hey the lid came off the rim!!!

I know this is the deadest of horses, now but the couple doubles down on Garza really feel huge to me.  Learning about a new coach, and learning he's not overly stubborn feels almost more important than the result of this game.

Simpson got all ball on that one

I don't get why DDJ doesn't get more time, at least have him be the 6th man.

Castleton not being ready to play these minutes is such a killer.

Wagner has been a big disappointment so far..

I’m glad to see the different post defense. It shouldn’t have taken 2-3 weeks to change but oh well.

We need to drive and get some fouls

Lemme guess Eli gets it going and Franz can’t hit a broad side of a barn. 

Man...Teske has been BBQ chicken all year in the post. What happened to his post defense?

Oh god I forgot this was an Iowa game.  We're going to get a hundred political ads tonight, aren't we?

Howard should have used a TO after the last bucket. Now Iowa will be on a 8-0 run to take the lead. 

Jon Teske = garbage post defender is not a take I expected to have this year, but here we are.

Teske on his way again to getting torched, but B1G post play is legit 

No DDJ yet. 

Franz can’t shoot tonight but can dunk

Eli can shoot tonight which means the rest of the the team won’t  

Looking like about a 15 point loss. Starting to run out of gas already. Just going to jack 3s and get in foul trouble like every road game of late

Let’s see Dejulius. Wagner can’t hit anything tonight.

I'm a white guy, and this is racist, but gigantic white guys in college basketball (and not on Michigan) annoy the shit out of me.

Simpson with 2 nd foul . Ddj better be on or the bottom May fall out 

Garza is an ugly fucking ogre

positives:  they said livers was going out and warming up and looks closer to being ready

austin davis, i just root for that guy.  lunch bucket, bad haircut and all.  love it when he does well.

eli, with 8 points.  go eli, go.

darker blue with a new job that is perfect for him.  excellent news. 

not so positive: ah, can we please make those easy shots and play some D?  

This is where we really miss Livers. Bc he can guard one of the bigs and you force one of them to guard him. 

Good to see Eli make a couple. Between him, DDJ, Franz, 2 of 3 need double digits to have a shot.

Anybody else not a big fan of Teske/Davis two big lineups?
