I need this victory

I don't want this to sound selfish, but I moved to Kansas from Michigan last fall for work. Normally, I find the fans here very tolerable since Michigan and Kansas rarely meet in anything. However, the past few days have brought out he best of this fan base. Suddenly, l feel like everyone is suddenly a Kansas fan (in a community that is mostly agriculture based, and predominantly ksu fans) I need this victory tonight or I may never hear the end of it. Plus I have a ton of push-ups riding on this victory. Being a Michigan fan in Kansas is tough, especially when you are an educator. That's my two cents and my cool story bro moment all rolled into one. Go Blue!

Same here.

Amazing how many OSU basketball fans there are now, suddenly, eh? I guess if OSU football began with Jim Tressel, OSU basketball began with Thad Matta.

Ditto. I was at a bar outside of Cincinnati watching the games last night. I wanted to pull for the B1G, but after seeing the behavior of the Ohio fanbase, I quickly started to cheer for 'Zona.

Cincy

It has some of the most despicable Ohio fans outside of Columbus or Cleveland.. It's spills right over into SE IN and NKY. Then there's your IU and UK fans in the mix. Now we'll be playing UC soon.. The Tri-State Cincy area is a haven for Michigan hate.

Dont forget this...

Maybe partially due to the Gerry Faust connection, but Cincy probably has more ND fans than OSU fans -- at least, it seems that way during football season. Now, of course, it's OSU hoops fans coming out of the woodwork. "HEY WE HAS A BASKETBALL TEAMS TOO!"

Anyway, my Michigan man cave, located smack dab in the Tri-State, is a haven against Michigan hate. ;-)

1 seeds

Two 1 seeds have already bitten the dust. Tonight it is Michigan's turn to reduce that number of 1 seeds remaining to 1.

I'm hoping Morgan is fully healthy both physically and mentally, I feel he can go a long way to helping to nuetralize Whithey.

I also don't like NCAA tournament days with no games on during the day so I have nothing to distact me from my anticipation from Michigans game.

Is it just me or (knock on wood) are the remaining teams in the tournament looking more and more favorable for M's chances to make a run?

Very impressed with McGary's interview

I thought he had a good knowledge of the game and understood that they're trying to do. A lot of times Freshman just give you riff raft coachspeak because they're shy/nervous. He sounded like he has a plan.

Time to execute.

In my bracket, I have Kansas

In my bracket, I have Kansas winning not just this game, but the entire tournament. My theory is that the cosmos always try to screw me over with bracket picks, so they just might deem it neccessary for Michigan to win. Science.

If the cosmos really wants to

If the cosmos really wants to screw you over, it would seem more likely that they would have Kansas win this one just to lose the next, thus completely destroying you.

I couldn't even bring myself to fill out a bracket this year.  I couldn't pick Michigan to lose and I could see the cosmos lurking...

GO BLUE!  Beat them Jayhawks!

Starting to feel a little sick

As a KU grad, the thought of Michigan losing this game to the Jayhawks makes me a little sick (though I'm also recovering from a concussion, so that may be part of it).  I really need to spend the day focused on kittens or hot air balloons or maybe even work.

 

In time Magua became blood-brother to Mohawk to become free. In his heart he always was Huron.

2 point underdogs

I saw we're 1.5 to 2 point dogs depending on where you look.  I think Kansas's tourney experience is the reason for that.  Should be a great game, hope our guard play is the difference.

My family and I went fishing

My family and I went fishing in the Keys today. Before we cast the first line, I jokingly said I wanted to catch a shark. Five minutes later, a shark, albeit a small one, was on the line. I wonder if I have the same power with the game tonight: I want Michigan to win. Guess we'll find out.

Good gracious I'm nervous;

Good gracious I'm nervous; the nerves actually crept in after the games were over last night. Part of me is excited, of course, when thinking of a possible victory, but overall I'm a bit of a hot mess

dilemma

So it is Good Friday, and the biggest Michigan basketball day in a generation or so.   If I stay home, and Michigan loses, will it be my fault? If I go to church and Michigan wins, I will have missed it. If I watch the game in church on my cell phone, is that the worst of all options? These are not religious comments, just superstition where the rubber meets the road. I know we have some clergy on the board. Perhaps they have some advice.

Wow

Those stats are uncannily close to one another.

This game may come down to intangibles.  How, uh, do our cheerleaders stack up (er, no pun intended) to theirs?

I'm a little surprised

I'm a little surprised Oregon-Louisville got "top billing" (CBS) for our timeslot.  I'd think Michigan-Kansas would draw more viewers.

Looks like they have to choose one site or the other

And since the undercard in Louisville's region is better, they had to put both games on CBS.
