Bang Bang!!!

MOAR 1st HALF WAGNER!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:17 PM ^
Wagner destroyed Swanigan in the first half. I like this team's effort.
February 25th, 2017 at 8:01 PM ^
POSBANG!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:02 PM ^
Big resume builder. Assuming we don't lose to Nebraska, this probably gets us off the bubble and out of one of those First Four games.
Now you're playing for seeding. Finish strong.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:05 PM ^
I think we might (currently) be in an even stronger position. Weren't people talking about a 9-10 seed *before* this game? But, as you said--can't blow any easy ones at this point!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:13 PM ^
This year especially I'm not sure there's much difference between 7-10 seeds. If we could get our KenPom seed, which would be a six after today I'm guessing, then it'd be a big deal.
Really annoyed we got so fucked in Minneapolis because if we get that game we're in good shape for a double bye in the BTT.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:19 PM ^
Nebraska is not a gimme (they have several impressive wins) but we're not on the bubble regardless. We'll be in the field of 64 for sure.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:28 PM ^
Ticket punched!!!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:31 PM ^
Weve been off the bubble for a couple of weeks now. We've won 5/6, lost to an ascending Minn. team via Teddy V and missed free throws, BUT OUR SENIORS ARE KICKING ASS AND TAKING NAMES. And the rest of the team is following them.
Gents and ladies, we have made the turn. This team is good. Coming along nicely thank you very much!!
Go Blue!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:02 PM ^
Tournament winning entry POS BANG!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:37 PM ^
I can't stop looking at this gif. Thank you for making my day.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:12 PM ^
if this doesn't get them back nothing ever will ...
bang me
February 25th, 2017 at 6:31 PM ^
You get my upvote for only acquiring 200 points since the day this site launched. That takes patience.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:48 PM ^
I just redeemed my points for a trip to Europe.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:55 PM ^
interesting...

6/30/2008 was the launch date of this version of the blog. Prior to that it was something about halo.
February 25th, 2017 at 8:38 PM ^
you could say he's been laying in the weeds...
February 25th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
I said I needed to see consistency, I've seen it. This is a tourney team.
Great game and very happy for these seniors.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:14 PM ^
It's about time.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:23 PM ^
There is no bandwagon. Check the postgame threads. I've supported this team day in and day out. That never waivered.
I didn't start the Fire Beilein threads (multiple) and never was on that bandwagon (however I routinely said that I couldn't blame anyone).
That does not mean we were a good team. We weren't. Now we're playing a heck of a lot better and it's not just a game or 3.
I was saying consistency back in early January when people were starting the "what do we need of do to get into the tournament?" threads.
We were always capable of beating Wisconsin or Purdue. That was NEVER the issue. The issue was stringing together multiple games of high play. Not that flash in the pan hot shooting game and then lose to bottom 3rd B1G teams.
We've proven that we've turned the corner.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:51 PM ^
We have been a good team all year, we are just playing better he last couple weeks. We have, what, two bad games all year? Maybe three? Outside of the top 10 teams this year, there really isn't a lot of consistency from anyone
February 25th, 2017 at 7:12 PM ^
This is a positive thread. Let's keep that way. But stop it.
...Let's just celebrate this BIG win!
February 25th, 2017 at 8:50 PM ^
Other than OSU, Illinois, and maybe South Carolina or Virginia Tech, what games were so horrible that you thought we weren't a good team? Honest question.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
Bound!!!!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:07 PM ^
Zak to finish their home careers at Michigan. Great effort today. Bang Bang !
February 25th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
Bang Bang Maxwell's Silver Hammer Came Down

They've looked good for the past couple of weeks--let's hope it carries over into the tourney!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:04 PM ^
Go Blue!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:04 PM ^
All the poses shall be banged.
February 25th, 2017 at 9:12 PM ^

FUCK FUCK!! Come on FUCK. Oh, fuck yeah. yay fuck yeah. Oh come on fuck!!!
Great win today. Great response when Purdue mounted that comeback.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:05 PM ^
Great win! Mo and Walton played great. Good D. They are on a roll! Go Blue! Nobody wants to play M right now.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:06 PM ^
Great effing win. Man, do we look good when we want to.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:13 PM ^
March is a good time to want to.
February 25th, 2017 at 6:08 PM ^
Go Blue!
Shout out to Duncan with the deep buzzer at half!! That was BIG!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:06 PM ^

February 25th, 2017 at 6:11 PM ^
You have just been POS BANG'd
February 25th, 2017 at 6:53 PM ^
Check back tomorrow morning, when we'll all be hung over!
(+1 for the GIF. I'm putting that on my van)
February 25th, 2017 at 6:18 PM ^
Huge win, and a great way to cap their Crisler career for the seniors!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:07 PM ^
LOVE how this team has turned it around! Hail to a great Senior Day win!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:07 PM ^
I was so nervous at the end of that game and then Walton made that three and I knew it was over because I just KNEW Derrick was not going to let the team lose, great shot by a guy playing awesome basketball right now!
February 25th, 2017 at 6:15 PM ^
Good God that was a huge basket. It looked like things might fall apart in soul-crushing fashion and that pretty much sealed it. I guess I'll try to remember that shot when I think that the breaks never go our way
