Michigan @ Wisconsin - 1PM EST Open Thread
The fancy stats and Kenpom are telling us that Wisconsin might not be as good as their record indicates.
It feels like we can get out of the Trohl Center with the victory if Dickinson stays out of foul trouble and we can hit 35-40% of our threes.
Houstan's home/away split on 3's is pretty dramatic. Need to start evening that out! (By improving on the road, not deteriorating at home.)
Go Blue!

IT'S A MIRACLE!

As frustrating as this season has been, this team is one guy getting good from being a really good team. Somebody figuring it all out.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
They called that a 3? His foot was entirely inside the arc.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:48 PM ^
Are you talking about the Houstan 3? He was completely behind the arc
February 20th, 2022 at 1:53 PM ^
Thanks for pointing out
February 20th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
The lead!
February 20th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
How bout this!? That's like a 13--4 run
February 20th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
I can’t wait for this JV game to finish, so we can watch the UM vs Wisconsin Varsity game!
February 20th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
Communication on the back line of the 2-3 zone is so poor today. Consistently giving up the backside.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
Another 3!
Well, an old-fashioned one, anyway
February 20th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
wtf was that call on TWill.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
A telegraphed foul. The official was anticipating it.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Old Diabate is back . 2 fouls and Ofer
February 20th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Another underrated aspect of this 1st half…T-Will has played great defense on Davis
February 20th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
I really like Williams' effort out there. Kid plays harder than most.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
We used our second TO there?
February 20th, 2022 at 1:53 PM ^
Howard is terrible at timeout usage
February 20th, 2022 at 1:47 PM ^
Really solid possession out of the time out there.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:47 PM ^
Well that was a disaster of a possession after using their second TO of the game.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:47 PM ^
Turnover Wills
February 20th, 2022 at 1:48 PM ^
Those possessions to end the half were booty.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
Wisconsin bailed us out with that foul.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
Davison's eighth foul.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
His eighth foul of the last two minutes
February 20th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
Tied at 31 at the half - not bad considering how shitty we played but I suspect they think the same.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
Davidson commits his 6th foul, picks up his second...
February 20th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
I didn’t understand the Juwan TO at a minute left to only burn one later.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:51 PM ^
I mean, the possession ended poorly, but the action did have Hunter wide open at the 3PT line. It’s just Jones couldn’t get him the ball.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
Considering they shot 10% or so from 3 in the first half, I'll take them being tied at half on the road. Can't expect Wisconsin to be unable to hit a 3 in the 2nd half, though. They need to play smarter with the ball and hit their open shots.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:57 PM ^
That's big ask this season. I think the big thing will be the whistle action that will increase in the second half, and not in Michigan's favor.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
I would’ve taken a tie at half prior to tip-off. Diabate back in to start the 2nd with lots of energy left after sitting for 9 minutes
February 20th, 2022 at 1:51 PM ^
Literally just consistently need one f*cking guy besides just Hunter to score points and this team has 3+ more wins this season already.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:52 PM ^
Twill gives us nothing . Foul machine lately and his rotation on d iS slow . Atleast Jace makes things happen . Caleb does have 8 rebat half
February 20th, 2022 at 1:54 PM ^
We could actually win this thing. So we should do that.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:55 PM ^
good news: we are crushing them on the boards so far, 23-13
bad news: we are shooting a scintillating 12-32, good for 37% overall.
February 20th, 2022 at 1:56 PM ^
Very competitive game. Make some shots and win the game. Moar road conference win gold please !
February 20th, 2022 at 2:00 PM ^
I wouldn't mind seeing some Jace in 2nd half to disturb and cause some havoc defensively. Hopefully Diabate brings some positive energy. Go blue!
February 20th, 2022 at 2:02 PM ^
He's had a lot of rest, so there's that.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:05 PM ^
Held them to .93 PPP (average is 1.11 opponent adjusted) so wasn't really the issue.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:06 PM ^
February 20th, 2022 at 2:07 PM ^
Dickinson is having a bad time holding down this zone today
February 20th, 2022 at 2:07 PM ^
1-10 from 3. That's 1/3 of their season average. Just hit their average, keep up the defense, win the game.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:07 PM ^
Eli "Microwave" Brooks.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:08 PM ^
Eli comes out hot. Keep it up!
February 20th, 2022 at 2:08 PM ^
Eli can sure score in spurts.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:08 PM ^
Nice fast break 3 there, then layup. Good stuff.
February 20th, 2022 at 2:09 PM ^
Looks like we want to win!!!
February 20th, 2022 at 2:10 PM ^
We could extend this right now and make it very difficult for Wisconsin to come back. They are rattled. Very important stretch for the season right here.
