Since no one started one yet. Let's get a solid road win!

Difference in the game was when Juwan benched Jett for Baker. Baker played really well tonight and it made a lot of difference. When Jett isn’t hitting shots he’s unplayable because he could care less on defense. At least Baker tries and plays savvy position sometimes. Not sure why Tschetter didn’t play, he and been playing well lately.

OSU loses again. Yet I bet they stay top 30 in Kenpom and the NET for some stupid reason. We need to beat them on Sunday. That's a Q1 win, but also I can't fathom losing to an OSU team that's been playing this bad.

If Michigan finishes 5-4, 17-14...with only one ranked (top 25) win...they have any shot at the tournament?

Edit, obviously if they get to the B1G Championship Game...so let's say they go 1-1 in the tournament and finish 18-15.

There's no chance honestly. They need a lot more Q1 wins, which they're 1-8 at the moment, while avoiding anymore Q3/Q4 losses. They would need a big run like finishing 8-1/7-2 with majority Q1 and Q2 wins and would probably still need a couple in the tournament to even be on the bubble.

The way I see it, there's only two roads to the Dance at this point.

1. Win out, and win at least 2 in the BTT; or

2. Win the BTT

 

So, seeing as those two options are kinda unlikely, I'll just say this:

BEAT OHIO.

 

That is all.
