what the gently caress is this michigan-wisconsin game

Wisconsin's center got foul-autobenched early, but Dickenson basically did nothing early. Then, Michigan went on a 41-6 run and it wasn't bullshit either. Michigan was averaging something stupid like a block a minute.

Game's going to end in the 20s, but it was 40 midway through the second half.

Purdue hit 7-9 from 3, but only up 4 at the half because of absolutely brain-dead turnovers.

If you like offense, UK-Auburn is not the game for you. Cats up 11-8 at the under 8 timeout.

Michigan has more turnovers than field goals at halftime, so might I interest you in Minnesota-Michigan?

Anyway this game makes me feel a lot better about Iowa relative to Michigan. Not that I think we are way better or anything but for a little bit there it seemed like Michigan could run away with the conference

I don't know how much of the game is Michigan playing like hot garbo and how much of it is because Eli Brooks is out. That led to weirdo lineups with a 1, a 3, two backup 4s, and a 5. Michigan's backcourt is likely sketchier than everyone thought.

Brooks is grading out as the best defender in the Big Ten. He should be back by next game.

It also helps ground the team a bit. Rather lose now than in March.

They are still a top 5 team.

Michigan dropped to #5 after the game, Iowa may be better but we’ll see when they play.

Iowa, Michigan, Texas, and Nova are in that second tier of teams behind Gonzaga and Baylor.

Gotta say, I was not expecting that.

Singlehandedly put UVA back in the Kenpom top 10, from 15 or so to 7 now.

3. North Carolina
4. Kansas
5. UCLA

these are not coincidentally the best programs all time though. I personally would put Kentucky #1 especially in light of their fans currently advocating for defunding the university because they kneeled.

Our fans are loving stupid sometimes. And it's not just fans, it's a county government making it an official request to the state government, and it deserves all the ridicule it gets.

Man there's really nothing like the Iowa offense when they get humming. Incredible ball movement and shooting and then if that breaks down you just dump it into the best player in the country in the post and let him flip something crazy in. Northwestern looked pretty good early and then the starters just buried them coming out of halftime.

Indeed. Big win, especially since they just played Sunday. A little marred because OSU is down their two main point guards, but this same lineup beat Illinois at Illinois Saturday.

In other news: Trevion!

My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
I don’t know if it’s funnier if everyone would return for their pandemic redshirt or only Davison.

Edit: neither option is as funny as Anderson, Potter and Trice each currently working on a Masters of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis.
