Best start in school history on a game where Zavier Simpson was taking step back, heat check 3s at the end of the game. This is our new reality, friends.  GO BLUE!!!

but michigan doesn't take care of business and blow out the teams they should, right?

only one team has lost to UM by less than 8 pts this year.  ONE!!!  this team deserves the #1 ranking until they lose.  Period.

Bang bang! Had to follow game thread from the air but caught the last few minutes once i landed. This team is damn fun. Been said by many but damn they can win so many ways. Simpson and Teske hitting 3s has to be tough on any opposing team. Go blue and let’s get the next one!

The beautiful thing about this team is that they aren't over-reliant on any one guy. The team has definitely been carried offensively by one or two guys from time to time, but it's usually not the same guy doing it. It seems like every time someone has an off night, another guy steps up and delivers.This is a very, very complete team.

Is this our best team under coach B? It seems like we’ve had some better players, but this unit as a group seems really really good.

I know it's the nature of college basketball now, but given the players that Beilein has lost early to the NBA it is amazing what he has continued to do.

Every year after losing players early,  I think man If Only They had stayed and then he does this and makes Final Four runs. I think he is underappreciated

Not just a POSBANG for the best start but I'm always happy to beat Northwestern, seeing that they've been a pain in the ass on the court the last few years.  The fluky stuff and endless NBA three's tend to happen more when we play in Evanston.  But I'll definitely take a 20 point win over them.  Yes, I will.

Surprised the announcers did not mention that Jack Harbaugh and his grandson were sitting right behind Coach Beilein.  Those guys are good luck!
