Michigan v Michigan State Open Thread

Absolutely no way this team makes the tourney. They are bad with a capital B. Competent guard play is totally non-existent. We are in for a very tough couple of years unless a miracle happens and somebody learns to make a jump shot. Ugh!

While it’s better than whining about the refs like your earlier post(s), you should probably step away from the keyboard, take a breath, and maybe go for a walk or something. You’re clearly upset about this game, but no amount of bitching is going to make you feel better.

Well that was terrible

A nice blowout loss to a rival. When Michigan loses this season, they sure love to lose convincingly.

Well that was a punk down. MSU owns the state unfortunately.

Why is Juwan hugging those guys? They totally tried punking us and he walks through all smiles. I bet MSU does not try to reschedule our game because they can talk this win up…
January 29th, 2022 at 2:40 PM ^
Because he is a professional and has been on both sides of this type of game.

I know… I just got caught up in the hatred of those guys. You’re right. I mean, look at my avatar. I love Juwan.

I get it I can’t stand msu either.

We def need to get tougher, mentally and physically. Need some junkyard dogs. I feel like Jace Howard plays with that in the very limited time we've seen. Why not use him more? Every game Houston disappears for stretches, insert Howard and I guarantee our defense will 100% be better and plus he's a coaches son he will prob make the right play and be in the right position. Just see such a soft team and it hurts seeing the usual tough as nails MSU team. Big ten is brutal and pretty boys rarely win.

Too heavy on Dickenson

We got beat so bad that the GOAT ? decided to retire.

At 10-8 (4-4 in Big Ten), this team doesn’t look like an NCAA Tournament team, even though the three-game winning streak before today's gave some of the "bracketologists" listed in the Bracket Project Matrix reason to put Michigan in the NCAA Tournament.
The Wolverines have 11 scheduled Big Ten games left (12 if they re-schedule the MSU game at Crisler), but staying one game over .500 before the Big Ten Tournament at least will give them an NIT opportunity. To assure an NIT bid, they can’t do worse than 5-6 in the final 11 Big Ten games (or 6-6 if the MSU game is re-scheduled).
Right now, home games with Nebraska and Rutgers and a road game at Penn State look like the best chances for wins. Between now and the end of the regular season, they’re going to have to play like they did against Maryland and Indiana if they want to keep playing after the Big Ten Tournament.
