Michigan

[richthedentist]

Dickinson is the second coming of Garza uses his elbows to clear guys out and nothing is called they better let Myles play on Thursday

 

[zappaa]

Still don’t understand why Wisconsin wasn’t playing chest to chest D, why the hockey power play D

 

[cyrock3]

Michigan is a little off, but that's not enough for us to beat them the way we've been playing as of late.

I'm willing to bet Myles does a better job on the boards than Reuvers or Potter. They were soft as hell all game. Gard is gonna be ripping them next practice. Hopefully fouls aren't a factor.

Michigan wins. Great result for us. Catch them looking ahead to the massive top-5 Ohio State showdown.

Rutgers is only a game behind Wisconsin for 5th place

If Iowa sweeps Wisky we can catch them.

Need to be a game better though since they have the tiebreaker.

UofM is one tough *** team

They're really good

I don't mind this result at all. Michigan might think we haven't skipped a beat kind of mentality, and Rutgers has to show up on Thursday. They definitely can be taken by strong man to man defense and more uptempo. Wisconsin soft zone kept Michigan in the game long enough to win that game.

For us to have a chance against Michigan, we'll have to try to speed them up. Different presses, quick double teams and recovers, mix up man and different zone defenses, and hitting the defensive boards. Get them out of their comfort zone. On offense, gotta hit shots, especially jumpers since they have size on us. Everyone will need to play his best game of the year. I think it'll be a fun game to watch, regardless of the outcome.

 

[RURahh]

Give them credit due to the fact that they had no team practice for 2 weeks and shook off the rust to win on the road convincingly. Hope their next game is a trap game as they look forward to playing their arch-rivals.

A win on Thursday not only gets us in, but could get us as high (low?) as a 5 seed

How is Dickinson a 20 year old Freshman ?

They're really good

i think they are the best team in the BIG. Their offense is impressive.

I think we’re kind of a trap game for Michigan. Second game back, sandwiched between their trip to Wisconsin today and a trip to Ohio State three days later. If Myles can stay out of foul trouble and we can make it an ugly game, we might be able to grind one out.

 

[Knights 1212]

Michigan is outstanding. They struggled being down 12 at the half but they put it on Wisconsin on the road in the second half doubling their score by 40-20 and won by 8. They moved their defense and really went after Wisconsin.

Howard is a great coach and the refs respect him.

Rooting against Wisconsin, Purdue, Indiana, and Minnesota

 

[bowlgoal]

Jacob is going to have to stick that point guard like glue. We have to play the same level defense as Michigan played today and obviously hit our shots. They clog up the middle so well. Need some good screens and back door cuts.

 

[goru7]

That second half defense by Michigan was suffocating. They got up on Wisconsin and are faster and more athletic and except for Davis , the frosh on Wisconsin and their most athletic guy , everybody else struggled. Their length affects teams. We were affected last year by it. But we are much more athletic than Wisconsin and can play offensively and defensively if we move the ball and attack the basket and play inside out and hit our kick outs. We also have to bring one of our great defensive performances from last year. All things we are capable of and we are due for a complete performance .

 

[RUJMM78]

Michigan hasn't played in 3 weeks and still wins on the road against a ranked Wisconsin team.Great talent,outstanding coaching and terrific recruiting places Michigan once again as a top tier basketball program.Rutgers had two games against Michigan at the RAC and MSG last season which were losses and a precursor to what is happening this season with a predicted number 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament right now.Rutgers will need one of their best offensive games of the season to defeat Michigan and if that happens ,a top 20 ranking should be the result.

 

[mikeyoc]

Howard is a great coach and the refs respect him.

Yes, but with a big assist from Phil Martelli

 

[JonathanAlan]

We're due to have one game where everything clicks and we put it all together. And I'm hoping Thursday's game is that day. Go Rutgers!!!!

 

[RU82]

I think the post game commentator after the Northwestern game (can’t remember his name) had it right when he said if you’re Rutgers I think you have to look at the remaining five games on our schedule and be determined to just win them all.
