That was an amazing comeback win. We looked super rusty in the first half but clamped down on defense in that second half. Dickinson didn't shoot super well, but rebounded on both ends, was great on defense, and really played well down the stretch

What a win. It helps that Wisconsin went cold from 3 but that probably balances out them being hot from 3 early. Great job by the team to hang in there and just chip away

Also, Brad Davison still sucks apparently. Get out of here with that chicken wing being a 'basketball move'. That's an intentional elbow to Mike's face

That was an epic second half.  Terrific effort by a very talented, deep Michigan team that plays with heart, composure and a lot of good chemistry.  Really fun to watch this team earn that tough win on the road against a good Wisconsin team.  They earned it too.  Hunter could not buy a call until late.  Everyone played hard on defense the second half.  Beautiful conference road win.

What a game by Michigan. outscored Wiscy by 20 in the second half. 

We are so blessed to be able to watch this team - they play so hard, so well, every game. This team makes being a basketball fan so much fun.

GO BLUE

Just like hockey yesterday. Came out of halftime/the first intermission and looked good. Needed to get the legs going again

BTW Michigan volleyball will be on BTN at 5:30 eastern today.

What can you say?

I was expecting a lot of rust, and that's what we saw in the first half...so much so, I thought it'd be too much to overcome....

However, i underestimated this team and this coaching staff. Hardnosed defense, some great offensive rebounding chance really saved the game...the Offense still appeared a bit janky at points in the second; a lot of short armed shots and some wild shooting...

But after 23 days off, on the road, versus a top 25 opponent, that was a great, great win.

Friends, THAT was impressive. 

Livers kept them in the game single-handedly in the first, and somehow they found their legs in the second.

Tremendous defense, determined offense. Dickenson owned the boards and Brooks was a terror.

Most impressive win of the season - this team continues to delight and impress.

Go Blue!!

one other thought:  our legs held up for a hardcore hustle second half that won the game.  i don't care how 'in shape' you are, being in game shape is a different animal and we held it together in a scrappy game. 

and when we kept getting it to 3-5 points, then taking bad shots repeatedly or turning the ball over, that was worrisome.  but we sucked it up and put it together.  

really nice win.

That is one of the most impressive Michigan wins I’ve ever seen. After all that time off, down 14, battling terrible Michigan-hating refs. Yet, they pulled out the dub!
