Well only being down four after that  half of basketball is a good thing.

Am I the only one thinking that ESPN is biased for Pittsburgh? At one point, they showed the stats "Pittsburgh outscored Michigan 9-6." Outscored?

so Pitt plays out of their minds, we play really average and we're only down 4 points, I expect us to whoop their asses in the 2nd half

 

2 things I'd like to see:

espn showing normal camera angles and full screen and the refs to tell Dixon to get the fuck off the court

I'm not feeling too pessimistic due to the fact we're down 4 at the half and Pitt couldn't miss a 3 and we couldn't hit one. First time seeing the team from start to finish and man we are going to be really good.

A little while back saying Michigan was overrated. I think it was rittenburg and he said Belein has never coached a top 25 defense. Does anyone know what metric he may have been using for that? I assume scoring D right?
