MBB: Purdue at Michigan. Do you believe in miracles?
I sure as hell don’t but go blue!
2pm game time on CBS
February 25th, 2024 at 8:17 AM ^
I do believe in miracles - but I don’t believe one will happen in this game.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:23 AM ^
My sentiment EXACTLY. I've seen a lot of miracles in my life. This one? Lol, nope.
February 25th, 2024 at 10:06 AM ^
Hey if OSU could pull it off without Holtmann, well wait, damnit, we still have Juwan.
February 25th, 2024 at 2:08 PM ^
We may have a better chance without Juwan.
February 25th, 2024 at 2:35 PM ^
I don't care if it's UM or OSU, it's just hard to win on the road in the B1G. We have a shot
February 25th, 2024 at 11:13 AM ^
I don’t believe in fairies 🧚♀️. Did one just die?
February 25th, 2024 at 12:06 PM ^
did you know that Fairies Wear Boots
February 25th, 2024 at 8:19 AM ^
No way. Lose by more than 20. M plays individual basketball on offense and no organized defense,
February 25th, 2024 at 8:26 AM ^
Can’t believe the spread was only 13
February 25th, 2024 at 2:08 PM ^
That was the 1st half spread.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:26 AM ^
Double post. It may be a sign from above.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:29 AM ^
But DJ Khaled just gave our team ‘We The Best’ jackets. I find the gift quite confusing. I cheer for Michigan hoops, but last place in the B1G is not the best. One could argue that it’s actually the worst.

February 25th, 2024 at 8:41 AM ^
Pete - when I read your post I immediately wondered how deeply involved DJ Khaled was, figuring one of his handlers/people came to him with a request or an idea and he simply nodded OK.
But he actually met with the team (web meeting) and probably has a pretty good idea of what's been going on this year: https://www.instagram.com/p/C3vpWHku7g7/.
Maybe he's Juwan Howard's Ric Flair. And who doesn't need a Ric Flair?
February 25th, 2024 at 8:25 AM ^
I believe in miracles since you came along, you sexy thing.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:28 AM ^
I believed in them back in October when I bought the tickets so I am taking my wife this afternoon to have brunch in A2 and see the dance team and the band (if they are there).
February 25th, 2024 at 8:39 AM ^
spring break - means Alumni Band and maybe freshman dance and cheer made to stay.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:42 AM ^
Oh man, you killed what he was looking forward to.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:57 AM ^
Hopefully brunch is...a killer brunch.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:14 AM ^
Just to clarify: Mrs Team 101 - brunch and band. Team 101 - dance team.
February 25th, 2024 at 12:25 PM ^
I feel bad for your wife having to see this.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:29 AM ^
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles
February 25th, 2024 at 8:36 AM ^
Normally mid-court 20 rows up but made the wise decision to go up to Grand Traverse Bay and will be biking up to Suttons Bay ( no snow so no xc-skiing).
February 25th, 2024 at 9:16 AM ^
So many empty seaters on your side even when the M teams were rollin'. Somehow the seating needs to allow the people that actually show up during good and bad times to have the good seats and the fair weather fans somewhere else.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:50 AM ^
I do. This would take 7. However if they did pull it off, which they won't, the story would be much more about how Purdue is pulling a .... Purdue. Losing to the worst 2 teams in the conference at this point? Yikes. And it has nothing to do with conference depth. This conference isn't good
February 25th, 2024 at 8:55 AM ^
"If only you believe in miracles (if only you believed in miracles so would I)"
February 25th, 2024 at 11:28 AM ^
All I need is a miracle. All I need is Purdue.
February 25th, 2024 at 8:59 AM ^
I think there's an allotment of miracles and Ohio State beating Purdue in the first game of the interim coach's tenure was the last miracle related to beating Purdue this year. If that makes sense.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:02 AM ^
I do, but because those are limited, I wouldn't use it up on this game.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:13 AM ^
The Warrior series on Netflix is really good for those looking for alternate viewing.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:40 AM ^
Concur, it is great.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:46 AM ^
I prefer more than one warrior. Warriors, come out to play-ay!
February 25th, 2024 at 1:29 PM ^
It's fun and I'm enjoying it, but IMO calling it really good is quite a stretch.
In that same category though, the live-action Last Air Bender is a blast and a really great adaptation that's a zillion times better than the movie was.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:29 AM ^
Michigan Baseball is playing today at 2, but they're playing Arkansas (#2) so another miracle needed.
February 25th, 2024 at 10:29 AM ^
It's going to be another beautiful day here in the DFW metroplex. Yesterday we went to the the outdoor jazz festival during the afternoon and then to North Richland Hills for a Brahmas hockey game.
Go Blue!! Beat dem hogs⚾
February 25th, 2024 at 9:52 AM ^
Honestly at this point I would rather see OSU upset Staee. Sacrilege I know but Izzo can rot in hell.
February 25th, 2024 at 9:55 AM ^
This team is miraculous--they are a golden goose. Bet against them and let their eggs feed your family.
February 25th, 2024 at 10:05 AM ^
If the Wolverines get pumped up on Amphetamine, Michigan could Wynn it with a Miracle 3
February 25th, 2024 at 12:14 PM ^
i'd pay 10 bucks to see these guys at the pig. Excellence from KEXP. I miss that.
February 25th, 2024 at 10:07 AM ^
Deciding between watching this game or clean the grout in the bathroom. Currently it’s 50-50 what I choose.
February 25th, 2024 at 11:53 AM ^
Take care of the grout. It will probably be more enjoyable.
February 25th, 2024 at 1:31 PM ^
Why not both? If you have it, just use the YTTV app as you scrub that grout!
February 25th, 2024 at 10:27 AM ^
Believe in miracles? Or complete suspension of disbelief? You decide.
February 25th, 2024 at 11:25 AM ^
Only way this team wins is if Purdue didn’t even bother practicing or scouting Michigan this week, and they just show up expecting to win just because.
Honestly, even if that happened I’d probably still expect Purdue to win. And by double digits. This Michigan team is just that bad.
I feel bad for Beilein. Every time he turns on the TV to watch this team, he has to sit there and wonder how this program, which he built to one of the most consistent and well respected programs in America, fell into the pits of Tartarus.
February 25th, 2024 at 11:43 AM ^
Brad Underwood said this during his immediate post-game interview yesterday with the BTN reporter (they beat Iowa by 10 or so at home). He said they didn't even watch film, etc.. It was a weird flex. Then again he's and odd duck.
February 25th, 2024 at 1:21 PM ^
He has the right to flex. His teams have never lost to Howard. Not once. He might’ve lost to Beilein once in his first season, but beyond that, he’s thoroughly outclassed Michigan in head to head.
Usually they’ve been thorough ass kickings. Even when Michigan won the conference a few years back, Illinois came into Ann Arbor and put an absolute whoopin on Michigan in the COVID season. So as far as I’m concerned, he’s earned the right to talk shit about Michigan.
His problem is just that his teams can’t do shit come tournament time.
