GO BLUE!!!

[Honestbuckeye]

For my kid, and for all my U of M buds on here, I wore my navy suit/maize tie to work today, and now sitting on my back patio here in Florida in maize tee shirt with blue shorts.

GO BLUE!     GO BLUE!     GO BLUE!

And for the record I am picking the Wolverines to bring the trophy home.

I'm bullish on Michigan this year. I think they have the right makeup (toughness, desire, coaching, experience) to go pretty far in this thing.

Even a blind dog can find a bone.

how's the blind dog's sniffer tonight?

gonna take down mighty Nova?

While I'll be pulling for the Wolverines my conference affiliation & enthusiasm certainly has its limits.If I was to do THAT the Whoopee Wagon  would be fetched and the nice young men in their clean white shirts would be tending to me

I think their man to man defense can throw a wrinkle in Nova's offense. It's key that the M defenders keep a hand in the face of every Nova player tonight. Can't allow good looks from 3 point range.

even w/o a hand in their face, I don't think they can shoot that well two games in a row

I feel a little dirty for typing in Big Blue font, but I'm not crazy!

My otherwise busted bracket does have Villanova winning it all.

taking this as a yes

Both teams getting open looks from deep.  Yet the only one that has gone in was Wagner's, which was probably the worst look of them all.  Funny game sometimes.

UM should have given the foul last possession.  Wagner was gassed, and they had no team fouls 6 minutes in.  Probably could have afforded it over giving up an easy layup.

Divincenzo torched Michigan in that first half, where otherwise Michigan defended well. But they are struggling to shoot the ball.

DiVincenzo...my goodness

[SuperMario]

Have to tip you cap to this kid. Game of a lifetime at the right time. Certainly talented and has the ability, but he’s also having a special night. Absolutely incredible performance.
