Ok on pundits. Michigan can show them in their remaining 5 games. Win on the road, better yet, knock off Purdue. Better yet, win the Big 10 tourney. Michigan has already cemented their spot. (assuming they beat Rutgers, etc.) Winning out and winning the Big 10 tourney would greatly improve Michigan's seeding. I'll assume not top 16, but play themselves into the top 32.

MUPPETS are in order. We have to be in the tourney now.

Also, a huge shout out to Irvin, and to Beilein for being patient with him.

Lastly, Donnal wasn't terrible, and Robinson is improving on defense. Wilson didn't do much, nor Walton, but we had more than enough with Irvin et al.

Most of us have given Zak a lot of grief, and deservedly so... But a very good game all things considered. My favorite play was the post defense on Happ. Way to bounce back young man.

You think we can beat Kansas, UCLA, Oregon, or Duke simply based on how we have been playing the past 2 weeks?

I think we can realistically hang with any team ranked 15-25, but don't think we have the guns to hang with most teams in the top 10.

And we got it.  Don't think Wisconsin is an 11th ranked team but obviously it's huge for us.  We don't win if Irvin doesn't make the shots he made.  I still think him making a basket (other than a layup) is pure chance.  But they went in tonight and we won.  Take it and run.  Mo was the best player.  Walton had an off night but I still go into each of the last games behind him as the leader.

We have enough talent to make it into the dance.  All about execution now boys.  We can do this.

GO BLUE!!
