#16 WBB hands MSU their worst loss in series history
The #16 ranked Wolverine women followed up their phenomenal week last week that included an upset win at #8 OSU and a thrashing of Illinois with an absolute beatdown of their in-state rivals.
Michigan got out to a 20-6 lead in this one tonight. Was a runaway. Michigan Basketball's all-time leading scorer Katelynn Flaherty went off for 26 points tonight, including 4-6 from behind the arc.
Nicole Munger was equally impressive with 13 points tonight, 9 of them coming on 3s.
Michigan handed MSU their worst loss in the 45-year series history, 74-48. The 26-point victory was Michigan's largest since a 17 point win on 11/22/1997.

I would consider making an abuse joke but that's just insensitive

Given that Nassar was employed at MSU and treating a wide variety of female athletes at MSU during the careers of some of their girls, yeah.

Thank you for this Chuck Norris ... i see stuff like this all the time,like on ESPN bottom line they write something like "Barry Bonds hit his 43rd homerun of the season,the most he hit since he had 37 three years ago" or "Arkansas threw for 412 yards today vs Ole Miss,the most yards passing they have had since they had 381 vs UConn in 1993" ..
I have never understood this,if someone knows why they (or people) do this can they please explain it to me ....

If they say "since their previous record of 381 vs UConn in 1993" it makes sense. Don't ever confuse ESPN (or WD for that matter) with journalism.

but note that MSU has 5 injured players that were not available, and no point guards.
January 23rd, 2018 at 9:27 PM ^
True, but it's not as if we can do anything about that.

Personnel issues never stops our opponents from crowing about big wins over Michigan.

WD's girlfriend was hot from behind the arc tonight - no pun intended. The game was never close and the lead was even larger until Sparty got some points in garbage time. Decent crowd. I liked the Detroit Pistons Extreme Team at halftime.

Death to Michigan State. The more humiliation that acrues to them, the better.

They have played both Notre Dame and Louisville -- both ranked in the Top 5 at the time -- and got trounced by 20 or more points by both. But, those games were very early in the season and the team has been improving dramatically. They are perfecting their 2-3 zone defense; their freshmen (Deja Church and Hailey Brown) are becoming major contributors; and their upper class stars (Flaherty, Thome, Dunston, and Munger) have all hit their stride.
That said, 70-40 against UConn sounds about right.

I noticed that Maryland crushed OSU also, giving the Buckeyes their 2nd B1G loss. UM and OSU are now both one game back from MD, who we happen to have our final game against at home. If we take care of business it could be for the title?

Keep it going!
