Not to be a debbie-downer, but if we don't shake this trend of slow starts, we're prone for an early exit in the tourney.

But on the positive side! Fuck yes!!!!!!!

Glenn was awesome!!! Maybe this is the game that gets him going!!!!!

Holy crap!  I'm still shaking. 

I'm pretty sure the last time Michigan won on a buzzer beater was during the Ellerbe years.  It was a game against Minnesota but the team was awful and the game was meaningless in the end. 

But this?  I'm at a loss for words.

That game was not good for my back nor my blood pressure and I had to take an extra Naproxen when I finally stopped jumping in the air on that last shot, but all the same....

... what I just saw!"  (said in the voice of Vin Scully)

No, really.  I can't believe that shot went in from that angle.  Over the defender (who may have gotten the smallest of pieces?  Couldn't tell).  Very tough shot, despite it's proximity to the hoop.  

Bullet dodged.  Happiness gratefully accepted.

Honest question - can you name some of the calls you think we got? 

I definitely felt the whistle was pro-Purdue. They got away with a ton of contact on our drives to the hoop - every one of those was at least 50/50 for a foul call. 

Are you talking about Nik getting fouled going for the loose ball? 1) Spike ended up with the ball, anyway, so it's not like it changed possession, 2) one of the Johnson's absolutely plowed into him and 3) Nik certainly sold it well when he took the hit. 

Bardo is an unnaturally thin-faced dumbass and I thought he needed to shut the hell up frequently. 

Are you referring to Hammons 5th foul? That's a foul. 100 times out of 100. He ran over GRIII. Easy call. 

So can you detail some of the calls you are referring to?
