Michigan vs MSU MBB Open Thread
T-minus 60 minutes to game time. I just got off a long day of work and am looking forward to a great game. Figured we could fire this thing up early here to get some conversation going for this huge game.
If Michigan wins today we will be the first team to beat 3 top ten teams in a row in a season since Iowa did in 1986-87 (per ESPN stats and info).
Go Blue! BEAT STAEE.

+1 Insightful.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:13 PM ^
Why did Nik step back? That was a charge about to happen
January 25th, 2014 at 8:17 PM ^
In this game?

Glad to see Mateen Cleaves could get his shift off tonight for the game.

You sure that wasn't a foul refs? Appling did drive to the hoop after all...
January 25th, 2014 at 8:15 PM ^
And of course that's a foul too
January 25th, 2014 at 8:16 PM ^
That was eerily similar to what was NOT called on Walton in the first half
January 25th, 2014 at 8:15 PM ^
DAMMIT! Must hit the wide open 3's!
January 25th, 2014 at 8:16 PM ^
Lol, we should just not contest their shots anymore, foul virtually automatic.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:16 PM ^
January 25th, 2014 at 8:16 PM ^
has to swat that appling crap into the third row. not just stand there with his hands up.

This is some lopsided officiating. I have come to the conclusion that the refs decided before the game that they were going to make it impossible for Michigan to win.

These refs (to our team):

Dickie V: State is awesome BABY! Izzo is AWESOME BABY!
Shulman: Michigan scores.
Dickie V: HARRIS DRIBBLES, THAT'S AWESOME BABY!
Refs: Foul on scUM, I mean, Michigan #23.
Levert: I'm not even in the game.
Refs: Technical foul!
Dickie V: That WAS ALL IZZO BABY!
January 25th, 2014 at 8:18 PM ^
disgraceful
January 25th, 2014 at 8:18 PM ^
Michigan 11 fouls
MSU 4 fouls
Michigan starters 8 fouls
MSU starters 1 foul
seems legit...
January 25th, 2014 at 8:19 PM ^
What a joke
January 25th, 2014 at 8:18 PM ^
January 25th, 2014 at 8:18 PM ^
Oh well. The refs will be on our side in AA
January 25th, 2014 at 8:19 PM ^
fat chance, we have the worst home cooking in the B1G
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
I'm not going to act like we don't get an advantage, but this is unheard-of.

You've got to give Dakich that much - he will criticize the officiatng sometimes. Vitale, no way.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:19 PM ^
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
Fouls: Michigan (11) / State (4)
FTAs: Michigan (3) / State (15)
Totally legit.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
But this is why we overperform in the Tourny and teams like MSU & Wisconsin struggle. The officials there are NOT afraid of them and a fairly called game dooms them.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
Was that Walton that just gave up the baseline? Terrible.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
They called a foul on them???
Can they do that?
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
is still pathetic. letting them drive every time.
January 25th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
