Wagner with copious cheap fouls, Walton uncharacteristically sloppy with the ball, nobody can shoot from distance, everybody is exhausted.

Michigan had no business being in this game for any stretch of time.

And they won. This is already the best conference tournament ever.

I wasn't home to watch most of the game, and when I got home I checked out the mgoblog twitter world (Brian and Ace) and decided it was best not to watch. Now I am full of regret.

and rebound like we did today, we don't even need to shoot the lights out.

Let's but the "live by the three, die by the three" meme to bed for this team. We just beat a ranked team, conference champion while shooting 24 percent from three because we took it to the hole and played defense. This team can do it more than one way.

Exactly! You hit it on the head. Boy when they get it going though from down town, watch out. I mean how much different of a game could this have been down the stretch had they at least hit 2 or 3 long balls? Terrible shooting game but it doesn't matter. They handled a pretty damn good attack from the Purdue interior defensivly and took care of business on the boards. The Purdue shooters are damn good from the outside as well. Took care of business on them too. This is a recipe for success. I don't see how you can guard Wilson and Wagner when you get them on the outside. I would exploit that all day. Doesn't matter the size of guy guarding them. Them two are too quick and long legged to stop going to the hoop and you have to contest their three point range.

A small but gratifying bonus is all the the Spartoons tuning in to watch their game and having to wait through our OT win - no doubt rooting their green little hearts out for PU...

Only to sit & grip while we pull out such a gutty W.

And then let's tell them about the plane again!!!!!!!!!
