Reminded me of when we put 102 on Virginia in the 1989 tourney run.    Was kind of hoping for another three at the end to match that number.  Go Blue and cute the Elite Muppets.

...this was compiled by the Official NCCA March Madness channel – I went back, re-watched and tallied all of the highlights for each team. 

1st Half: 
Texas A&M: 4 "highlights"
Michigan: 1(!?!?!) – the Duncan Robinson transition dunk. 

Weird. 

2nd Half:
Texas A&M: 4 highlights
Michigan: 6 (3 are Charles Matthews rolls to the rim)

Better but still weird in a game where A&M never led and spent the majority of it down by 20+ and was basically out of contention by halftime theystill found a way to highlight 8 Aggie plays to 7 Michigan "highlights."

Flight to SLC got delayed...but for some reason I don’t mind. Got to watch to the sweet, sweet end! And get to watch an Elite Eight game after a day of skiing on Saturday. Doesn’t get much better than that!

I still can't believe Poole hit that shot. And they didn't defend in the inbound pass. And they had their back to the passer and allowed an easy catch for Rahk. And Poole hit that shot. 

GO BLUE BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listening to the radio highlights was hilarious. With every shot made, Shep is screaming and trying to keep from losing his mind. Terry Mills just kept saying, "Mmmmmmmmm, mmmmmmm," like he's eating a heavenly dessert between fits of laughter.

My colleagues are at TAMU this week putting in 24 hour days at their cyclotron. I am thrilled to be in LA with all the UofM faithful.

What a dominant performance!
Also glad this team backed up my smack talk in San Antonio! I broke out my XXXII’s at work for this game and found all my Aggie friends.

This is the most fun basketball I've watched since the Fab 5 days, except it's being done in such a different way. I'm starting to believe it happens this year.

My wife asked if this team is as good as the Fab 5. My initial response was oh hell no. But after giving it some thought, I think I would slot this team between the sophomore year fab 5 and the freshman fab 5. Juwan ~ Mo (This could be the most controversial match-up. Lots of love for Juwan, but Mo may have better stats and his 3 point shooting gives him an extra dimension.) Webber >>> Livers/Duncan Ray Matthews King MAAR Rose > Z Benches are similar Fisher Beilein I mean, you at least have to think it through. The Fab 5 had some struggles as Freshmen and this team won the BTT and is now playing in the Elite 8. P.S. I never thought I'd say this but black socks ~ pink shoes.
