Must have been some really good gum…

 

[Noahtogo24]

Ughh, too much money for Willard.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Congrats to the Wolverines.

May was a coach I was hoping Iowa would have a chance at when they eventually fired Fran, but unfortunately he jumped to Michigan after last season.

 

[jwardelt]

Gard comes through in the clutch again. Just fire his elfing ass.

 

[ConqueringHero]

What an awful game but I’ll take a banner any season.

That wisky D just couldn’t keep it up.

Suck our big blue cawks.

Please get a life John Tonje

 

[MGO2022]

Suck a cawk everyone. Michigan basketball is back

Congrats on the BTT title, UM fans. Y'all got screwed with your NCAAT draw IMO

 

[MGO2022]

Absolute Bosheet seeding

Ridiculous smh.
At least we got to hang a banner cuz the season is effectively over lol

Purdue’s 4 draw is dream smh

Yeah but we don't have the horses to take advantage IMHO. If we make it to the S16 Houston's physical defense will expose us too.

Clearly the conference tournaments don't matter much, but UM's noncon was pretty weak, and y'all lost several of those games, unfortunately.

Good first weekend draw for MD

Yeah non-con and margins probably hurt UM. There are certainly arguments for Purdue/Maryland but it’s hard to see those 4 draws vs ours. I will cope and seeth

 

[snowsquirrel11]

IU should keep Woodson, shame they're pushing him out

 

[boilerzz]

Pretty clear the committee put a lot of value on SOS. Scheduling a weak ass non-con is a bad idea.

 

[Sparty_57]

14 SEC teams, what a joke.

 

[jwardelt]

Wish they’d move the B1G tourney final to Saturday.

 

[Sparty_57]

They got screwed.

 

[Middawg]

I welcome the next B1G team to win the national championship to shove it up Seth Davis's ass.


He is the biggest B1G hater in the broader CBB media, I think he picked just about every B1G team to get upset in the first or second round

 

[Sparty_57]

Wish they’d move the B1G tourney final to Saturday.

Obviously, the conference tournament doesn't mean jack.

 

[snowsquirrel11]

They got screwed.

Yeah UNC had no business being in, not sure IU did either though

 

[MGO2022]

Committee is 🌈 anyway congrats to MSU, U of M, Wisconsin, Illinois, Maryland, Oregon and UCLA on getting in

 

[boiler1987]

Def didn’t expect a 4 but I think our non-conference SOS helped quite a bit.

Hasn’t for as long as I’ve been fanning.

Always helps to play a non Iowa like schedule.

Get great draw...focus on IU!

 

[Courtsensetwo]

They got screwed.

Gallo, Leal, Rice, Reneau, Goode...all got screwed. The rest...not so much

 

[Courtsensetwo]

Absolute Bosheet seeding

No way to defend that. Mich got raped.

Play all your bench in the BTT in the future, don't risk injuries for a meaningless tourney

 

[boilerzz]

Can’t remember the BTT ever mattering. This is not a new phenomenon.

 

[jwardelt]

Glad we got an early game time. Team can be back to Madison before bed time.

 

[Sparty_57]

Is having good opponents on the schedule more important than winning those games?

 

[jwardelt]

Is having good opponents on the schedule more important than winning those games?

For the bubble teams, probably.

 

[snowsquirrel11]

Of course you have to win (some of) them. Purdue beat Yale, Ole Miss, and Bama in the non-con and lost to Marquette, Texas A&M and Auburn. But having a weak non-con (Maryland) and also losing games in a weak non-con (UM) will drop your seed.

 

[boilerzz]

After looking at the bubble teams, it appears to be the case.

1st round lines:

Michigan (-2.5) vs. UC San Diego
UCLA (-4.5) vs. Utah State
Oregon (-6.5) vs. Liberty
Purdue (-8.5) vs. High Point
Maryland (-10.5) vs. Grand Canyon
Wisconsin (-16.5) vs. Montana
Michigan State (-18.5) vs. Bryant

No line for Illinois yet because opponent is TBD

 

[Jason Raymond]

I like Illinois against Xavier in a close one. I'm looking at (-3.5)

 

[boilerzz]

UCSD is 2nd nationally at generating turnovers. Michigan struggles at times to protect the basketball. Might be something to look for.

[SpartanJD]

Is this the year the conference title drought ends?

Probably not

 

[boilerzz]

We are a hurling school now, whatever dafuq that is…
