So we are letting another team get off from outside the arc today. Joy!

Wow, this is precisely like Indiana except Yogi Ferrell is split into several people.

Can't hit a shot to save our lives
Nik just kind of standing over in the corner
Iowa is 6-7 from 3

There's a "Stauskas Sucks" chant going now. Hopefully that lights a goddamn fire for him, he hasn't done anything yet.

M is getting doubled up and the starting pg sits for 10 minutes because of 1 foul? head-scratcher

Ya spike isn't really contributing anything right now. Walton had been our 2nd best player during conference play.

This^ is indeed a mystery. Seems to be costing us, though last time vs Iowa Spike had a great game.

I was putting off my run but that is far less painful than watching this. Hopefully it brings us some luck. Smell ya later!

Terrible team defense. Someone is napping on every play and Iowa is capitalizing every time.

We got that call b/c we're getting our ass kicked. Ref calls that a charge if it's a close game.

Joined: 06/30/2008

MGoPoints: 22581

Probably not. The new rules have made of nearly impossible for a secondary defender to draw a charge.

Our perimeter defense is a joke right now. Roy and the iowa white boys are getting wide open looks from 3 and draining most of them.

3-point shooting.....obviously. We have made 1, they have only missed 1.

Joined: 09/18/2010

MGoPoints: 14596

More than that tho. They have far more effort today. They are playing right defense and denying stauskas while we leave marble wide open. They are hitting the glass hard and getting second chances off of offensive rebounds while we look like we are wearing cement shoes.

They can, and will, if we give them wide open looks all day.

Ridiculous. Iowa can't throw it in the ocean against MSU or OSU, but now they can't miss. Yes, our defense sucks, but they had some open looks in those games and weren't converting. Hell, they went over 13 minutes with a FG versus MSU.

I don't think this team can play zone (1-3-1 or 2-3) for shit. They don't seem to trap hard enough to create turnovers so it ends up being a lot of soft traps and leading to open jumpers.

6-7 3 pt makes by Iowa. does that qualify as a black swan event according to the SIBMIHHAT?

I fully expected Iowa to come out hot....not 6-7 HOT!!!!! Michigan needs to cut lead to single digits by half....Lots of game left. Just a matter if Michigan makes a game of it OR gets blown out the building.
