Hard to say which team I like least here, but, ok it's not all that hard, the ones in the ugly ass uniforms.

It's a shame we cant beat them and IU in the B1G championship tourney, but you can't have it all.

For anyone not able to watch...

Hard to tell how serious it may or may not be but Hardaway Jr. just went back to the locker room with what looked like a sprained ankle. He put up a shot after driving left and his left ankle came down on Carrot Top's foot.

Almost stopped watching until Wisconsin made things a little interesting.  TSUN can't be happy being up only 3 with how putrid Wisconsin is shooting.  Nobody can be happy with the 20 minutes of basketball they just watched there.

This is like an episode of Hell's Kitchen where both teams lose.

That was the worst half of basketball I have watched all year. I hate Wisconsin's basketball program with a passion. However there is no excuse for Michigan not being up by at least 10 points.

For those not watching this game, continue not watching this game. Literally anything else you are doing today is more entertaining.

What a butt ugly game; made even more so by showing that fashion plate Hardaway Sr; every two minutes. Jeez you would think knowing he's be on TV he would look a more presentable; I guess he couldn't find the hoodie. Proves the old saying; you can't buy class.

Yeah, really rough 1st half offensively for the badgers, but I have a good feeling about the second half. They look good defensively and are getting good shots (for the most part). They need to stop turning it over and they should be okay.

I was just messin' with ya, man. I agree with what you're saying. Their success is a combination of relentless defense, grinding out the shot clock on offensive possessions, and the fact that every guy on the floor can shoot.

d1145fresh on 15 Mar 2013 - 4:26pm #

No worries. And yes I would hate playing against them when they drain the shot clock to 5 seconds then a center chucks up a three and it goes in. But watching Michigan lose is also nice to watch.

Burke is the only Michigan player with an assist today.

If this lead holds, I would guess it insures a #2 seed for the winner of the potential OSU-MSU game.

Every year it seems like Wisconsin works their way up to get a 4 seed, maybe makes the Sweet 16, but is never a real threat to win it all.  I wish the shot clock in college were shorter so that their style wouldn't work as well.

Still, this worries me.  Michigan is the kind of team that--like us--can be an absolute giant  when they click.  Much like our last loss to Wisconsin rejuvenated our squad, I worry this will do the same to the Wolverines.  If they play up to their potential, they'll be a serious contender.
