66-47 since it wasn't stated.
Livers and Brooks both went 2-3 from 3, and Igy and Teske had 20 and 17 points, respectively.

Really too bad we broke NOVA's will so early in the year, but you know what they say, sucks to suck. We On! Keep it rollin boys!

Great win! Team is playing outstanding D!

Next...

Good win. Providence will be solid in March. Lots of talent on that team.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:04 PM ^
Nice win!
I really like the fact that this team doesn’t need any one guy to score a lot in order to succeed.

Great win. The team looks like they're definitely further ahead than most Beilein teams are at this early stage of the season. The ESPN talking heads really talked up Michigan. One of them had Michigan in his group of 5 best teams right now. That may be pushing things. But, I really like the potential of this team. As they improve their offensive game, they'll become even more dangerous.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:15 PM ^
This team is versatile, can rebound, shares the ball, plays hard and can defend. Should be a fun season. I am surprised how good we look for mid-November.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:26 PM ^
Livers' 3-point shot looks good so far. No reason why he can't be an above-average shooter.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:27 PM ^
MBB should be ranked #4 too.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:32 PM ^
Basketball rankings are very goofy but I think we will definitely be ranked in the top 10 tomorrow
November 18th, 2018 at 4:31 PM ^
I'm in for the POSBANG....we did some bangin' alright, that was a very efficient win and this program is looking damned good, Go Blue!!!
November 18th, 2018 at 4:31 PM ^
Another preseason tourney championship and we’re 5-0. This team is gonna be amazing by February!
November 18th, 2018 at 6:48 PM ^
Yeah, lets stay away from MSU for as long as possible to avoid catching their "lets do great during the season and then bomb out of the round of 64/32" disease.

Defense is killing it and Z continues to control everything smoothly. Nice days for Teske and Livers. It was encouraging to see that the offensive performance didn't completely grind to a halt with Matthews having a very quiet day, partly due to the early 2nd and 3rd fouls. Seemed like we gave up a fair amount of OReb and had some odd box out fouls but Providence looked long too so probably not a real concern at this point. Still want to see a bit more out of Poole on offense if we're going to improve there. The 7 man rotation seems set as we didn't expand that even with a back to back but they will have to avoid foul trouble as that limits lineup flexibility. Overall, a pretty comfortable win over a team that figures to be a potential tournament team and obviously we killed Villanova and GW too so this was a fantastic week. Can't wait to see how they stack up against North Carolina.

A win against UNC would be huge but I’ll take a close loss if it happens no shame in that. Games like this a resume builders win or lose. People forget we lost to a terrible LSU team and got are asses kicked against UNC but still made the national championship. These games are entertaining either way.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:47 PM ^
Yep, one game is just one game and no November game is season defining. But North Carolina is a potential final four team and arguably the best team on our schedule all season so it will be a good test of where we're at.
November 18th, 2018 at 5:11 PM ^
We are the best team on our schedule, and the best part of it is that we are scheduled EVERY SINGLE GAME!

I watched that Wofford game, and as a result I'm actually really excited about getting to play NC as it looks like a great matchup strength wise for us.
They absolutely caved to Woffords defense (it's not great either, but NC gave up 15 turnovers and didn't out rebound them by much either). Wofford, people.
The game was pretty close, could have gone either way (while NC was ahead by 3-5 for most of the game), until 4:30 left in the second when a Wofford guy missed a 3, and Coby White hit one on NC's ensuing drive, which gave them a double digit lead.
November 18th, 2018 at 4:39 PM ^
And in the consolation game... South Carolina 47, George Washington 8. Yikes!
November 18th, 2018 at 4:40 PM ^
We play South Carolina in December at Crisler so we can get the trifecta!
November 18th, 2018 at 4:40 PM ^
Them guys is good!
November 18th, 2018 at 4:58 PM ^
Count me in for the Uncasville bangings!!!! Gritty performance today!! GO BLUE!!
November 18th, 2018 at 5:44 PM ^
Michigan has the Ken Pom and Torvik #1 ranked Defense after today's win. Beilein continues to amaze as that is something I never thought I would see in his program. #7 overall in KenPom.
November 18th, 2018 at 7:17 PM ^
Saw some more drive and kicks towards the end of the first and the second. That blew the game open. Great win. Good bounce back for iggy

Late bang?
