Why the hell did we stick with that horrid offensive lineup for so long?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
Hey Coach B you're a nice guy and all but it's time for you to get your young team prepared for fucking away games!
No toughness No Gut
Chicken shit basketball
February 12th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
In the worst way
February 12th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
Put Alexander in at head coach.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
Where's Novak when we need him. This team lacks a vocal leader.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
to do is get GRIII out, he hesitated on that last 3 too and put 2 big men in
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
Why is Spike in there still? Why anything?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
Don't fraternize with d'antonio
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
Wow. Stafford is chubby
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
I hope no one says "well this will help for March" after this game. No more of that. We've had enough lumps and lessons already. It will be a bad loss in all facets if it stays this way.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
No shoutout for Novak? That's cruel
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
Against Big Ten leaders if we lose this one.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^

Like this I always expect this team to come out ready and prepared to dominate like the team they are and every game I am disappointed.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
Looks like we need a defensive specialist assistant coach.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:38 PM ^
THATS WHY HE DIDNT SIT IN THE GAME GOD DAMNIT
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
No toughness on either end, a complete inability to play defense, and zero poise. This team is getting worse every single game, and at some point it's fair to question what Belein is doing to prepare them for these games.
It's to the point now where I just expect a loss when we play a big game.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
play some D.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
GUARD GARY HARRIS!!! FUCK!!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Good fucking lord they CAN'T MISS. They can't keep this up much longer but they might not have to the way we're playing. Jesus.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Most college basketball players don't miss when they have wide open shots or they're shooting from two feet away. Not playing defense makes it hard to win.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
I don't understand what Coach B. is doing this season. HIs substitutions have been bad, the team gets blown out in the first 10 minutes of any big game, the half-court offense is stagnant, defense is pretty bad, no one besides McGary has improved during the season. Deciding not to guard the inbound passer on that halfcourt buzzer beater has made me view him in a more negative light. Hopefully, he pulls out some miracles like last year and my faith becomes restored (not that it would matter in any way to him or anyone else).
Also, GUARD GARY HARRIS.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
What I would do for a chance to throw it to ms. Stafford.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Stafford's GF needs to shut her mouth.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:41 PM ^
Sexual joke
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Too painful to watch...I feel like Ive seen this story every time Michigan plays a team with a pulse on the road. A higher seating in the tourney might benefit this team because they sure do struggle playing the favorite role. At least in the tourney everyone routes for the underdog.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
I'm only 53 so I can't remember the early 60's and before but does anybody know if any team has ever shot below their season average against Michigan? Pretty sure that the record stands at 1094 straight games where teams shot better than normal against us but I could be wrong. The streak may be longer.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Touché
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
haha, thanks for the laugh in a period where I thought it was impossible to laugh
February 12th, 2013 at 9:42 PM ^
This speaks to the entirety of my lived experience as a Michigan fan.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Every football team scored above their average when Rodriguez was the coach. I think the lack of Michigan defense plays a role in the shooting averages of the opponent. They should shoot higher when they play Michigan since Michigan's defense is worse than the average opponent. In this game, the defense is godawful. Luckily they're making up for it with terrible offense.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
We have the talent, it seems like we are getting out coached and out played...some of that falls on the players and the rest fall on the coaches. You cant win with horrible lineups...the game is 2 halfs hopefully luck will be on our side in the second.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Game's over. Stop torturing yourself now.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
I know alot of this is bad D, but some these 3s are just luck
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Just a complete and utter domination.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:39 PM ^
Who says you have to be in shape to play football
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Trying out for right tackle?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
not taking about giving up, but if you dont want to play belein should take them out. im looking at GRIII
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Hmmmmm...
Unsure why this makes me quite so uncomfortable.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Well on a positive note, Matt Stafford's girlfriend.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Where is Brent Musburger when we could use him?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Settle ur boys down, yo
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Have to question coach's ability to prepare these guys for a big game. They look lost. GRIII needs to be benched.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Gary Harris Big 10 freshman of the year.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:42 PM ^
Mitch Nik, GrIII, all have better game
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Are you kidding? There is no way you can believe that. You have some serious Maize colored glasses if you truly believe all three of those players are better than Gary Harris.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
You can't say that Harris is pretty damn good. He is MSUs best player.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:48 PM ^
Are you watching the same game?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Team is very young. When the shot is not falling JBs offense is not pretty. Can't even hit a pass. GR3 has officially shelled up. NBA? Maybe in two years.
