Believe in Beilein POSBANG

Great coaches figure out a way.  We have a great coach.  Coach K said no to a third loss to UNC yesterday.  Coach B will do the same to our in-state rivals today.

Got a feeling Charles Matthews comes up big in his hometown and cuts down the nets.  GO BLUE

Could not agree more with you re Matthews. Offensively he seems a bit off but his presence yesterday defensively was huge. And will be today.

Beilein finds a way! Go Blue!

Give us fair officiating, and Michigan wins this game!  The second half of game 2 was decidedly called in MSU's favor - that shit cannot happen in the tournament.

Go BLUE!!!!

A 3rd loss to MSU would probably mean this team goes out in the 2nd round or Sweet 16.

However, if they look good in a win and depending on the draw, you could see them making a Final Four run.

Meh. It’s one game.

I want to beat MSU and keep the good feels going but it may just be a bad matchup this year.

I’m looking forward to seeing what we do today. I believe it will be a good game for us.

Nah..  If they beat us it just means they have our number this year.  This game is about matchups and they match up against Michigan as good as anyone.  Simple as that.  They'll be in different regions and MSU will choke out early as always.  Michigan will be an extremely tough out in the NCAA unless they stop making shots.  And even then they'll still be a tough out because of the defense

that doesn't make you a bad guy or less than others, its just that you're lacking a certain genetic diversity, if you will, that might be beneficial.  for bird dogs and live stock we call that line breeding and it can be a good thing. for us humans, not so much.

 

go blue, beat those couch-burning, academic and moral failures!

Matthews needs to take some possessions on Winston. We cannot lose Goins up top. The amount of set open looks he gets are ridiculous. 

10 made 3s and we win.

On this St. Patrick’s Day, could this be a “third time’s a lucky charm” day for the Wolverines?

This will be Michigan’s third game in this years’s Big Ten Tournament and it’s the Wolverines’ third game of the year against Michigan State.  A win today would make Michigan the first Big Ten team to win three consecutive Big Ten Tournament championships. It also would be Michigan’s third Big Ten Tournament championship. Zavier Simpson, this could be your day!

We have a 19-5 record in Q1 and Q2 games. That’s insane. We have a great team this year. Doesn’t mean madness can’t happen and can’t get beat (obviously) but I like our chances today and moving forward.

As others noted last week,  much prefer Coach Beilein's sideline demeanor to Izzo's, and not just because he coaches young men in college, but that is a big reason.  FWIW, I think MSU has an excellent team and deserves credit for playing hard agains Michigan, but I seriously doubt Izzo's theatrics that may have contributed to some phantom foul calls last week and a huge ft discrepancy at Breslin will be anywhere near as effective or well received today.

Make some shots.  Win the game.  Bang.
