If we beat Loyola (still waiting for the proprietors to put together a scouting report that scares my socks off, just like every other team) we will be decided underdogs in the final against, probably, Nova or Kansas or Duke.
Teams that aren't just athletic, but really gifted.
We'll be dogs and we should be. It would be an unlikely, uphill battle.
But it's one game, and even with a, say, 30% chance to win, would I take that at the beginning of the season? At the beginning of the tournament? At the beginning of the weekend?
100 times out of 100. What a run.

They love Michigan. They play defense. They can shoot the lights out when they're on. Give Coach B a week to prepare and anything can happen. Go Blue! Bring home wins 33 and 34!

That's kind of a good comparison. There's no go-to star or offensive force. But they win.

This doesn't seem as organically fun as 2013, but it feels far more satisfying. We're seeing a program running at full speed.

if we don't gut that out, we're probably 5 or 6 seed right? And we are probably not in the final four right now
ITS GREAT TO BE A WOLVERINE!!
I LOVED the 2013 team (and all our great teams over the years), but I'm enjoying this season more than any previous year!
This team has grown more, and exceeded expectations by a greater margin than any Michigan team I've watched.
When we got drubbed by NC and struggled against any decent team we faced early on, I saw a team that didn't have a PG, couldn't shoot, couldn't make FT's, and was inconsistent defensively.
Somehow, our mad scientist of a coach has magically concocted a very dangerous brew.
Z has turned into an absolute beast. Duncan Robinson has improbably turned into a fine defender and has displayed incredible senior leadership, giving up his starting role yet still coming up huge in the clutch. Wagner's ebullient personality and big-time skills cause matchup nightmares and help drive the entire team, Matthews plays with stone-cold courage in the biggest games. MAAR is playing and leading at a level no one thought possible. Teske emerging as a dynamic force. The freshmen providing exuberance, depth - and a miraculous clutch shot too.
I'm having a blast - and they are too!
Go Blue!
Yes.

Maybe a not so popular opinion, but I actually enjoyed the 2014 team more than the 2013 team. Watching Stauskas torch MSU at the Breslin, the Dakich-deemed "cold blooded" step back 3 to beat Wisconsin at Kohl, and in general the insane offensive prowess that team had. Every game felt like the team could go off for 90
