I still can't believe this is on ESPN. Drunk bar patrons around the country are asking for the TVs to changed to a difference channel.

My take is simple and it refers to our players, and players at any level of basketball.   If you’re not ready to play, don’t put on the uniform.

Hey, I resent that.

How does Luinardi have Minnesota in the tournament?  They have a worse resume than we had last year.

If Michigan is a championship caliber team, which they are, they would not be bored.  We are quick to provide angst against the program, we need to be equally quick to acknowledge when we play better.

 

I don't need to do anything, but in this case, my point was that we're probably playing a little better, but Michigan is playing a lot more casually. That's a function of competitive boredom. That feeling of, "geez, I still have that paper to write later. Suck." 

[brfrad]

I hate to say it, but Dakich saying that if you play hard, good things happen.  Tanner plays hard, but he has no Big 10 talent, and it showed tonight.  He got abused by Teske.  I guess him playing is a good thing for him.

Only because the bubble is much worse than it was last year?

Heck, we have a better resume than them THIS year.  I guess I shouldn't say better, but equal.

our road formula. no defense (at least no defensive intensity) and our usual 20% output to 50 or so points. We're getting consistent. 

[The Polish Rifle]

Well at least we have MSU on the road next. That should be good for the confidence.

thanks, Netflix, for still being down and forcing me to watch this whole thing. You guys are tops. 

[Cazzie22]

Is Michigan State televised?  If so, can’t we stand another embarrassment?

Luckily its also nationally televised. 

[MichHusker]

Had to tap out at the under four timeout. Couldn’t sit there and watch it anymore 

[colhusker]

Based on the score, think the seminar I was at on social security tonight was not so bad.

Also being on espn, didn’t show replay of Roby at buzzer of shot clock in first half (not that it mattered obviously) but just glossed over. Also glossed over: Tom’s injury. Give me BTN any day.
