Taking out a number one and two to do so.
Yeah. Me too. I like their coach. I like a lot of their players. I like the way they play. But... Michigan... blech!
Good FT shooting Michigan. Thank you. (O141.5)

is any prediction he made in that article correct?
Glad I'm not the only one who likes Michigan and their style of play.

Chalmers, Greg Gard can flat out coach. To me Painter is the weakest of the coaches left. Yes, the BIG10 never gets any props. ESPN leads the charge for that, now realistically, the BIG10 appeared to be down. I love University of Louisville, always have, but I'm a BIG10 homer first! Go BIG10, Michigan State, finish my bracket off with a win over Kansas.
I love the way the play. BEILEIN.
My favorite quote from the Underwood stories thus far is from the Greenstein story - a Big 12 coach compared Underwood to Beilein.

Pitino made an interesting comment after the game about players not being smart enough to do one thing or listen to him. What he should have said was nothing. He should have said was my !!! got out coached and less touted players beat my all conference highly touted players in the second half.

I bleed orange of course, but I have to admit I love this Michigan team and Beilein. Very fun to watch. My bracket has them losing to Kansas, but I hope they go all the way!

I actually picked Michigan to win this game. Unfortunately I also picked Nova to win the whole thing so my bracket is pretty bunk.
At this point Xavier to the Sweet 16 is the only one.
Michigan is charmed.
EDIT: I just realized this game has to be extra-sweet for Michigan after the '12-'13 title game. My friend drew a comparison between that year's Louisville and this year's UM as teams who rallied after something awful happened to them (Ware's leg).

I don't really see many similarities. Underwood is a fiery guy, Beilein is more laid back. Both have good offenses but Underwood plays faster and attacks the rim more while Beilein plays a more finesse style. And defensively Michigan doesn't force many turnovers which is what Underwood wants to do.
I really saw a lot of similarities between Beilein and Groce. One is obviously better at coaching though.
This Landry Shamet kid is something.
Beast. It's incredible that we were top 2 or 3 for Brunson, Evans, Shamet, Shake Milton, and Lovett in the same year and came away empty handed.

BOOM! Feed my ego.
I think Bill Self is going to beat up on Tom Izzo today. Maybe win by 20.
Sparty going down. Getting killed on the boards of all things.

That's a winner!!

Arkansas sure did get screwed. Meeks blocks a shot out of bounds. They review it, it clearly is blocked and tipped out off Meeks and refs tell announcers no tip. UNC smh.

Arkansas' possessions in the last five minutes we're atrocious. Absolutely atrocious. I'm trying to decide which team was more awful, Wichita State's last two possessions or whatever it was Arkansas tried to do. They literally handed Carolina that game.

Arkansas got outscored 12-0 in the last three minutes...This included missed free throws and dribbling the shot clock down to five seconds before the moved. They tightened up badly.
