Soooo the State of the Union is also on...
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Now I feel like a fool...
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
It now seems like he was the great energy guy off the bench.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Michigan has been exposed. They cannot play tough. Another early exit in march
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
It's march already? Where have I been for the last few weeks!!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
It's almost like Belien forgot how to coach the past few weeks. We have been more competitive against MSU with much less talented teams in the past. Calm the guys down and find them ways to score some points.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Such a soft team this Michigan team has proven them selves to be.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
The TV is about to be turned off
February 12th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
Where's that fucking RESET button? Seriously guise, WHERE IS IT
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
S found in the aisle called "defense", an aisle UM avoids with enthusiasm.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
Is Brady Hoke busy at half-time?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
We are being exposed as a weak team, physically and mentally.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
Why did I delay THAT for THIS!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
we're overrated. 3-4 seed. no one outside of Burke
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Totally agree on the seed. I think we have some good players besides Burke though. Just not tough, Novak-like players.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
Did I just seriously see him WALK down the floor after that turnover?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
First time he has ever pissed me off on the court!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
Gonna be another year or two until we have a veteran, battle-tested lineup. Shame Burke and THJ won't be around to see it.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:03 PM ^
Will devastate this team. We have no one other than them who can create O off the dribble.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
Sweet offensive sets we've been running. Wtf happened to running a cohesive offensive play?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
I just don't understand? How do teams play so well offensively against us with field goal percentage as high as 65% Is our defense really that terribly suck?!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
Yes it is.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
I hate Big10 refs. It isn't rational that a team 6 steals, 5 OREB and 3 blocks and only 4 fouls. If you play like that you are going to foul more then your opponent.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:44 PM ^
We know how this ends. UM will make a 12-2 run sometime in the second half, give everyone some hope and then lose by 8. Enough seen. Not championship quality defense - defense is all about effort and athleticism - only 4 players on the roster play defense (THJ, Burke, Morgan, McGrady) - the rest are just floaters. There is a reason every quality team comes out and hits a high FG%. Not "luck"
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
^this is what no one realizes
February 12th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
lol McGrady?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
I didn't know that Tmac decided to go to college
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
Do we have another play besides
1. Give ball to Trey
2. Somebody set a screen and then roll somewhere (Note: does not have to be towards basket)
3. ??????
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Transition.
And then...
And then,,,
And then,,,
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
no mid range game, no inside game..No D.. Fuck
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
Whether or not we come back and win this game, I'm so excited for the Penn State game. Seriously, I'm done with these brutal road games all in a row.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
no mid range game, no inside game..No D.. Fuck
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
My sound is off now, TV is next.
I should note that I have never once quit watching a Michigan game early. Never once.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
When Burke can't get anything going no one can. Someone needs to step up
February 12th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
State cannot play basketball there whole thing is grab clutch and foul asuchh as the refs will let you get away with. Lets see how they play on the road in neutral courts and all that shit won't be allowed
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Michigan is no longer playing on the road. This team is not good enough to beat the top teams on the road, plain and simple. No disrespect to MSU, very good team, but Michigan is not even playing close to their potential because they're so psyched out.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
Football
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
These guys are all young. Morgan has never been a true center, burke tries way to hard to make up for ... Well everything. Over rated? Isnt everyone in college hoops season?
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
The Big10 really fucked us over with these 4 brutal games in a row.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
The Big10 really fucked us over with these 4 brutal games in a row.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
This is what it looks like when other teams give it their all to beat us. We need to learn how to play with the bulls eye on our backs.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
No mystery there.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Will not be in the NBA next year. He is going to drop like a stone down the ratings.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Why can we not have a strong first half on the road? I don't think it's just because we have so many freshman starters...
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
MSU is outworking our guys.
On the bright side, I've had this game on mute the whole time.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Let's get'em in A2. I don't generally toss in the towel but it continues to appear that we are just to youthful in these big road games. Hope I'm wrong, Hail, Hail ...
February 12th, 2013 at 9:55 PM ^
"Let's get'em" in EL, tonight. If our guys would get their heads out of their asses and play to their potential we could still win this. It's all in their heads, is what's so goddamn frustrating. Ugh.
February 12th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
Here comes our run!
February 12th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
get this to 10 at the half and we have a chance
