I'm just glad UM/UW doesn't have their Adidas unis with the weird waistband anymore. Those were horrible
I'm sold. At a minimum he should get all of JT's minutes. The offense just works better with him in there.
When I was at U of I, we went back the Thursday before MLK Day. So, maybe they go back tomorrow?
We go back the 17th, it's been the day after MLK day all three years I've been at school here.
So that's what they were wearing. Was wondering about that.

Great post. Good stats there.
Cool deal. I was making my reference from 1989-1993, though. :thumb:
At least now I'm up to date.
Not surprising either its the type of numbers that you get when you take the ball out of the pseudo pgs hands and get it into the hands of a actual pg .

The throwback jerseys should be the home jerseys forever.
Time to create throwback jerseys for the road.

Can we play against the Michigan defense every game?

They'll resume next Tuesday.
Wow. Defense takes a bit of a step back with this rotation, but it was already terrible. Offense takes a HUGE step forward. Granted, Mich D is helping that, but still. I'm not sure this rotation creates many more wins, but it is infinitely more fun to watch. And if it pulls one more win, that could be the difference we need.

This carries more weight on this game than you might realize. We're playing well, but we're also quite fortunate Michigan also can't play D to save their lives. Against any other team in the B1G, this game is at best tied.

+10000. Orange road unis plus blue alternates. Love these jerseys.
Possibly...i'd say JG had him on the game plan to start
Go back at their big's with Mav. Wagner makes Mav look like defensive player of the year.
A very good choice of game for TJL to get a full BIG baptism then. Totally agree, this team isn't suddenly a 13-5 team... Just a much more fun 9-9/10-8 team.
I enjoyed that half, but we have to see (1) if anything close to what we just did is repeatable in the 2nd, and (2) if this rotation can be nearly this effective against a real defense. But, either way, an improvement from the previous games.
Honestly. We need an orange throwback jersey set for road games.
