Michigan smashing Wisconsin

[kcg88]

40-23 just before halftime.

 

[RU206]

Michigan is the best team in the B1G. They have all of the pieces.

 

[BigEastPhil]

I don’t know if this is good or bad.

Good - from the standpoint that Wisconsin is quite beatable

Bad - Wisconsin will play us with a nasty chip on their shoulder after Michigan whips them.

Guard Trice hard and Wisconsin is beatable. Not a lot who create off the dribble. And Michigan is real good.

 

[ScarletKid2008]

Michigan has been lights out good this year. Beating a bunch of teams to a pulp.

Probably the suprise team of the conference (maybe the nation) this year

Jacob on Trice and Myles has to defend well vs Potter / Reuvers. Mathis on Davison.

 

[Caliknight]

Michigan is going to destroy us. Their D is absolutely smothering and they can shoot from every position on the floor, and their freshman big is lethal.

This is the best team in college that I have seen.

 

[kcg88]

Well, Wisconsin is going to get a hell of a talking-to from Gard but two road games in four days is tough. Hope it plays to our favor.

Have you seen the zags .? They are by far and away the best team. Baylor up there too

 

[kcg88]

Hunter Dickinson ranked 43rd nationally. Cliff Omoruyi was 49th.

Obviously the analysts just missed BADLY on Dickinson (#42 Micah Peavy is a nonfactor for Texas Tech, and #44 Jaemyn Brakefield has been pretty good but nothing mindblowing for Duke), but imagine if we had gotten a freshman with that kind of impact.

 

[bac2therac]

Someone needs to come out and proclaim a mercy rule

 

[RU72]

The key to Michigan is Mike Smith. He fuels the offense and is the fastest player on the floor. I saw him at Columbia for 3 years.

 

[Shell21]

36-3 run. Ridiculous

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Currently on a 39-6 run...my god.

Imagine our game thread right now if this was us.

 

[Shell21]

Hopefully this is the start of a bad streak for Wisconsin

 

[Caliknight]

No, I haven't seen them.

Only watching a lot of B1G. This Michigan team is shockingly good. They move the ball very well, can all shoot lights out, have a quick PG who finds everyone, and their D looks like they have 6 guys on the court.

 

[Caliknight]

Wisc next game will tell a lot about them. Hopefully for them it isnt MSU. I could see MSU smothering them too.

 

[kcg88]

Well, if confidence is a factor in college basketball then it'll all be even on Friday. Rutgers and Wisconsin will both have none.

 

[shields]

Dickinson likes to push off. If myles did that would have fouled out.

 

[kcg88]

Wisc next game will tell a lot about them. Hopefully for them it isnt MSU. I could see MSU smothering them too.

They come to the RAC on Friday.

 

[Caliknight]

They come to the RAC on Friday.

Opps that right.

Going to be a very interesting game. Two teams fighting for their lives. There is losing, then there is getting your heart ripped out. The latter makes you question everything.

Of course, we are in the same boat.

They are a great team too. Think Gonzaga is head and shoulders the best but I would put them right below with Baylor

 

[BigEastPhil]

This is like watching UConn Women game.

 

[Joey Bags]

This is an old school brooklyn *** pounding

 

[shields]

Michigan is real good.

 

[KnightTerrors]

So for Wisky is it fire the coach? Doesn’t run an offense? Bad effort? Lack of recruiting? No chemistry?

Or maybe, just maybe, this is the best league in the country by far and any team can beat any other on any given night.

League is incredible ....

Michigan is very good but this was their first game against a ranked team ...the grind hasn’t quite hit them yet

Actually, it is their 3rd win in a row over a ranked team. And, according to ESPN, UM is the first team in history to beat 3 ranked teams in a row by 19+ points.

 

[Knights 1212]

Michigan is loaded and is the real deal. They led by 40 before the subs came in. Dickinson is already 20 years old. He is really very good. He might be the best player in the BIG already. Smith and Wagner, Brooks, Livers are all very special.

 

[fluoxetine]

Michigan is damn good and criminally disrespected in the polls so far. Should've been at #3 this week.

Outstanding man to man defense.Michigan is one of the few teams that can successfully compete against Gonzaga and Baylor.

 

[pawildcat_rivals209725]

I haven't seen a team frustrate Wisconsin like that in years. Even when the Badgers are mediocre, and they're better than that this year, their disciplined system usually makes them hard to blow out. Michigan was on the Wisconsin players so tight in the first half tht they had difficulty completing a pass, let alone put the ball in the basket. They have a couple of guys such as Wagner who have long wingspans and can actually steal or poke away a ball from behind without fouling. A lot of teams have some quick guys, but Michigan has several of them and uses it to advantage on defense. The little transfer guard from Columbia is a real player, and the freshman center is a beast in a conference that has a lot of them this year. If they can sustain the type of effort they had last night, the Wolverines can play with anyone.

 

[RUtrumpet92_rivals498139]

March 4th: Iowa at Michigan. They only meet once this season. Garza vs. Dickinson could be interesting.

i think Michigan smokes Iowa. They are on amother level. My power rankings are as follows:

michigan
Iowa
Illinois
Wisconsin
Ohio State
Michigan State
Indiana
Rutgers
Minnesota
Purdue
Northwestern
Maryland
Penn state
Nebraska

they way RU is playing, we could easily drop to 11th in a week

 

[patk89]

And Michigan has a great recruiting class coming in next year. Hate to see it.

 

[IL Lusciato]

Yay fun. Big ten. Much joy.

 

[G- RUnit]

Michigan is only team I can see beating Gonzaga. Baylor, I think a step, not much, below those two. Intrigued by Texas. Have not seen Nova play all that much. Kansas doesn't scare me. Let Garza get his points and then what?

I think Baylor, because of their defense, might have a shot. That's why I like Michigan. Iowa simply tries to outscore people, and that's not going to work with Gonzaga this year, as the Hawks have already found out.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

How many B1G losses do you think Michigan will end up with this year? I say the Wolverines end up 15-5, possibly 16-4. They are on fire right now. I don't think they continue looking this good for the rest of the season.

With their talent and defensive prowess its hard to believe right now that Michigan loses more than 3 games .
