Can't both lose. Not pulling for anyone here. I mean Duke, like Ohio, is four letter word.
Prediction: Ohio 72 Duke 75
This list is completely arbitrary and not a genuine analysis of the relative merits of state fossils.

for the challenge title. GT is up on Illinois with the half winding down, BC and PSU is early, as is OSU and Duke.
I'm not exactly sure why we want to win the challenge enough to root for OSU though. Then again, the alternative is Duke. I guess I'd rather just keep my mind off such things.
Go Blue!

know who to effing root for either, man this is a really tough one.
well I guess I'll root for ohio cause the B1G needs it so that people don't say we're an over rated conference and I hate Duke for like ever for some damn reason.
Not impressed by Amir Williams at all, and to think I was upset he didn't go to U-M, whew, I guess Beilein truly is a better talent evaluator than myself and most others reading this.
M & Indiana are 2 best teams in conf. and it reminds me of the 70's & 80's and even early 90's

Also did not except MSU to blow it in Coral Cables.

That stretch is gonna take a lot out of a team mentally and physically. Duke is just never in the right place and Ohio is just dictating the game completely. The only downside is a lot of fouls on Ohio. Don't know if Duke can make them pay though.

2. Ohio's defense looks awesome.
Conclusions:
1. I can't root for Duke because I can't root for a Communist.
2. Ohio scares me because they look like the long and lean team that will give us fits.

Conversely, shouldn't our offense scare them because we have the perimeter shooting that could give them fits.? It doesn't seem like Duke is comfortably at all shooting from the edge and needs everything to go through their bigs. Ohio is keeping them from penetrating with the gourds and the O collapsed.

I know I'm biased but I think our offense can score on anyone. But, it was a bit disconcerting seeing us struggle against the pressure at the end of the NC State game. Ohio is athletic enough to bring that for the whole game

Michigan Offense
Michigan Offense
I'm not gonna lie, Michigan offense looks very good and their is only on Craft. Hardaway and Burke are gonna be deep threats but the key for Michigan is the development of Mitch Mcgary #4. He's got a lot of growing to do but I'll be looking for Michigan's frontcourt development throughout the year. Michigan has a very legit team!
