Michigan vs. VCU Tournament Game 2 Open Thread
ED-S: Liveblog. http://mgoblog.com/content/vcu-liveblog
Not sure if the Liveblog continues today. Big Big game today. Advancing the program, or treading water. And of course we get the only 5 seed to survive, so match-ups don't come closer than this. Rest of the bracket doesn't look like world beaters if we win today. One down, five to go. Go Blue!
McGary is a sparkplug like whoa!! Keep it up!
That 20-6 run was definitely partly fueled by them not being able to get set up ever..but it's not like them getting setup was helping much before. They were still down by 3-5 when they were getting setup
First 5 minutes of this half will tell a lot about how the game is going to end
I can't wait for Ole Miss to lose. Henderson is bad-cocky. He's annoying
Living in Badger territory, he is my new favorite player
Ole Miss is a mirage. They got lucky Wisky missed 3's all day. If they get into the sweet 16 their opponent will be psyched.
Damn, Son! My name is Brady Hoke. Can you play football?
With Stauskas, it's like he had too much time on a couple of his 3s.
From the liveblog.
FATALITY
but that is sweet. He must have taken notes of Lewan in the Michigan drill video from yesterday
This is the new "The Hit".
beating their trap with ease. maybe the maturity to hang in the big games is finally clicking, and it doesn't hurt that mcgary is scary. go blue.
The last few games have cemented in my mind how limited Mitch was early in the season. All the rumors about his leg injury playing a huge role in his development are being proven with these performances.
Early in the season, he was in the right place coming off the bench, but right now, he is definitely in the right spot...in the starting lineup. If he can stay out of foul trouble, he should play 25-30 minutes each game the rest of the tournament.
Barkley doing too many commercials? His voice sounds awful (worse than normal)...
I bet refs call more stuff on McGary and less stuff on the VCU press.
That halftime report might have been the most boring I've ever watched. Barkely and and the rest of the crew look and act like they're very depressed.
Nit-picking:
1) Our 1-9 shooting stretch
2) Stauskas not draining much
let's go out and bury them
THAT WAS TOTAL BS
come on now
So VCU can't foul now?
and 2 turnovers by trey?
not ideal
Refs are going to let them do that ALL this half. We better deal with it.
This isn't good. Need moar intensity.
TO's suck. C'mon guys. Cherish the ball.
About time on the foul call
Oh, there's the havoc defense. 4 possessions, 4 turnovers.
MITCH!!!
