Time to see if second half Purdue will make an appearance tonight.

Edey is 7'4", but Purdue isn't good at getting him the ball. What a waste.

This Michigan team has the Baylor-like quality of continually stifling the offensive momentum of their opponents. Once they build a substantial lead, it just feels like there's no opportunity for a comeback. A 10-pt lead can effectively feel like 20. It's demoralizing.

I guess that's what it looks like for a team to be top ten in both offensive and defensive efficiency. Their offense keeps putting points on the board, and their defense makes it hard for you to make up any ground against them.

They're a little turnover-prone. And I think they're a little thin at the center position. But they have length, so putting some early fouls on Dickinson doesn't necessarily sink them. I don't think they can stop Kofi, but we're going to struggle against their length. Going to need really good ball movement to get open shots against them.

Michigan is not close to Baylor. At least not right now. I don't think I'm ever sold on Michigan until they make a deep run in the tournament. They've played a soft schedule and almost every game at home so far.
