I don't see any mention of this game on mgoblog.

Michigan favored by 8.

Championship game of some silly tournament.

They just said that the browns are considering Condi Rice for head coach. That would be the most browns thing ever. I would love to see that happen

Go Blue in MN

Our offense, though clunky at times, is still quite capable of going on runs, assisted by the defense.  On the other side of the ball, it is going to very tough for all but the very best offensive teams to go on runs against us.

At halftime of the Nova game, JB said Nova was going to go on a run during the 2nd half, which is what you would normally expect.  Didn't happen, unless you count the points they scored in garbage time against the backups.

Where is the ceiling for this team says announcer 1 to announcer 2:

Answer: The ceiling is the roof.  

Good answer.  First game I have seen this year but it looks like Michigan has another team of ballers.

Agree MN. Michigan isn't a great shooting team, but they have guys who can get hot.

And with the way they run the floor and attack the rim, and with Teske there for easy baskets, we may be able to avoid those long dead scoring stretches we suffered through last year.

Simpson does a great job of attacking and distributing.

This looks like a strong, deep, good team.

How is Simpson player of the game? Iggy scores 20 and Teske gets his career high, and Simpson is POG?

Simpson is a helluva player, but gotta show the big guys some love.

5-0 baby!!!! This team continues to impress!! Even when the offense may not be hitting on all cylinders, the defense is the engine that drives this machine.

Early-season caveats very much in effect, but with today's victory, Michigan has passed Kentucky to move to #7 overall in KenPom.

Perhaps more impressively, their AdjD rating has dropped to 86.8 points per 100 possessions, passing Virginia to move to #1.

Go Blue!
