Anyone else have no picture?
D needs to step up and contest more. But with this shit refereeing that may prove impossible.
They are shooting well but its not like we've forced them into tough shots, its been mostly open jumpers or layups.
It's been a weird game, but these refs have driven me insane thus far.
Anyone have a stream?
And the zone took us out of an offensive rythym
no one wants to shoot
his playing style is borderline unwatchable which makes it so annoying that he has been destroying michigan.
for years.
Hate that SOB already
is frustrating thus far
So, Simpson just threw it out of bounds, apropos of nothing, right?
Matthews is ridiculous.
What a terrible decision to shoot that shot. Thank god he got a foul.
Two FT's in a row for Matthews!!!!
and gets a call?
They're shooting 5/9 from 3 and we're shooting 0/7, yet their only up 5 lol. I don't see this trend continuing into the second half.
Why not? Iowa playing extremely smart and not helping when Michigan gets in the lane. Happy to give up tough 2s and Free throws. Iowa has learned how to play against Michigan. We're going to have to keep making FTs and get stops on D.
Because neither of those 3-point shooting numbers is representative of the true talent level for the team?
It's a tournament game - let them play basketball. Are these idiots auditioning for something?
in the 2nd half
Could be worse, should be better.
2 fouls is not foul trouble at the half.
We will run them off the court in the second half
better take care of this shit in the second half.
What a crummy half. Bullshit fouls putting our best offensive players on the bench for almost the final 8 or so minutes, the "Did Wagner hit his first 3?" theory holding firm (0-7 from threes, they're 5-9), and the defense being non-existant means we're losing at the half to a team that won four conference games all year. They better get things figured out at halftime. Any momentum that the team had from their final 5 games is absolutely gone.
We need to hit some shots. We won't win with Matthews driving the lane.
yeah because he won't even put it up, he just kicks it out to someone not ready for it.
a troll and a dumbass.
I got a bad feeling about this game, and then it would be 2 full weeks off before the tourney. yikes
Fuck this, what a horribly officiated game. 3 top scorers all with 2 fouls? Michigan shouldnt even be playing in this fucking game.
For some reason I expect Delany to be gleefully rubbing his hands together in some dark corner.
Worst possible first half you could draw up, MAAR/Wagner/Robinson all autobenched, zero three pointi baskets made, Iowa shooting lights out. Lucky to be down only 5. They can definitely recover second half, but I got a bad feeling about these refs.
Played plenty fine but could be a good game to look at zone, getting killed on switches and screens
Mo and MAAR need to find a way to stay out of foul trouble the rest of the way...they have to stay on the court.
Hard to beat a team 3 times in the same season.
