We should withdraw after peen state so that we can rest
As Blutarski said, LET'S DO IT!
...bomb Pearl Harbor.
Cool bracket man.
I want to see "revenge" in the championship game of the NCAA Tourmament.
sometimes i hate being a fan... so damn painful
I try not to let it affect my mood for the rest of the day but it does. Losing sucks, plain and simple. Lets win the B1G tourney!
If they take care of business, Michigan has a chance to get revenge for what we just witnessed, and the garbage buzzer beater.

Lets all take a moment to be thankful that when we meet Indiana in the semis it will actually be a neutral court game instead of a de facto home one in Indy. At least the B1G did something right by moving the BTT to Chicago this year.
At least MSU & Ohio didn't get a share of the BIG title.

Ohio State's had the last three. No need to be greedy.
Who would you rather have them play right now other than PSU, Wisconsin, and IU? That's great.
Agreed, but then we have to also play MSU/OSU. We have four games in four days. that's f'n tough.
Don't even bother caring. This team will tank it against PSU and then will be 1 and done in the tournament.

Please keep rooting for this team. They need you!
What have you seen from this team that makes you think they'll prove me wrong?
...including wins against OSU and MSU.
You're saying that two free throws would change your perspective that much?
If Burke/Morgan hits a routine free throw, you'd be jumping for joy and singing of how despite getting outrebounded, we fought hard against one of, if not, the best teams in the country and came out on top.
39 minutes of the game we just watched = what I've seen from this team that makes me think they'll prove you wrong.
why are you watching and posting about it on a message board.

go back to RCMB scrub. By the way ,wasn't it hilarious the way Drake Harris crapped on your team?
Wanna bet? Internet points or something?
Your post sucks more.
You went to the trouble of registering an account today just to tell us you don't care?
So struggle against PSU with the possibility of chocking away a 15 point and then losing on a three because we can't defend. Can't wait
Get ready for a repeat of a couple of weeks ago. Penn State will go on a run and beat us by 2.
Troll alert! Go back to whatever board you came from
Do they switch refs for this tournament?
lets not blame the refs for our best two players missing their free throws
Are you talking about Hardaway, because if so, I'd have to strongly disagree that he's our second best player. He's killed us in just about every big game other than OSU.
Thank You, Thank You

Just because our players missed their free throws does not exonerate or excuse terrible, game-changing reffing.
buzzer beaters, half court shots, Penn State, Big Ten refs, pretty much everything else in the big ten too.
Not excited. I think we make a decent run, maybe two wins, but just put more miles on the tires. As I told a friend this morning, the B1G tournament just seems anti-climatic and counter- productive.
Revenge time? More like another prime chance for humiliation time
UM. - MSU in the BTT is unlikely....again
Wow, I get the loss is still fresh, but surprised by all the negativity. Yes we have to hit those easy ones, Yes we have to hit free throws. It wasn't all bad though.
The defensive intensity/effort they had today actually makes me feel better about our tourney (the conference and the real one) chances.
As far as the bracket, we get a chance to avenge the 3 most painful losses (in my opinion) of the year, so Let's Go Blue!!!
You're suprised by the negativity when the team just missed three straight free throws to lose the Big Ten Title?
If the negativity consisted of: "DAMN FREE THROWS! AH BAD FREE THROW SHOOTING! RAWR WHY CAN'T WE MAKE FREE THROWS! ARGH!", I wouldn't be surprised.
However, for some reason the negativity I'm hearing is: "DAMN FREE THROWS! WE ARE THE WORST TEAM IN THE B1G! WE CAN NEVER CLOSE ANY GAMES! HARDAWAY IS THE WORST! CUT MORGAN! CUT MCGARY! WE'RE NOT MAKING THE TOURNAMENT ANYMORE! FIRE EVERYONE! SCRAP THE PROGRAM!"
It's safe to say the negativity has been a far-reaching overreaction.
Of course it's an overreaction. Fans are emotional and say stupid things after a gut-wrenching loss, especially with a title on the line. This has been going on for decades at every major sports program in America. The only thing that makes it worse is people trying to control it. Just let it ride for 30 minutes, and rationality will return.
We are now 100% guaranteed to not win the 2012-13 Big Ten title. Which is the whole point of the regular season. There is no tomorrow for that. And we're 12-13 days away from starting any redemption in the NCAAs. So what kind of reaction are people expecting?
about the defense. But, what scares me is the lack of boxing out and rebouding deficiency. I love this team and we have the talent to go up against anyone on the country. The only thing in our way is playing defense and boxing out. If we can do those two things, this team can be special!
awesome,cant wait to lose to IU for a 3rd time this year.
3rd times a charm!
This will be fun. Burke has a chance to seal the Wooden award if Michigan has a great tournament run! Beat Penn St, Wisconson and quite possibly MSU in the final, umm yes please!
He had a chance to seal it by making those FTs against possibly the best team in the country.
If we lose to Penn State again we might as well not show up to thee tourny.
Glad to see that our fans have the teams' backs.
we do have their back. everyone here wants them to win and do their best but we know what disapointment is coming.
Time to exorcise some demons.
