Michigan at Wisconsin Basketball Open Thread 1:00pm on CBS
Go Blue.
EDIT: I WAS OVERLY COMPLIMENTARY OF WISCONSIN BECAUSE YOU DO NOT TEMPT THE CBB GODS WHEN PLAYING AT THE TROLL CENTER. BEILEIN HAS WON HIS LAST 3 GAME AGAINST THE BADGERS.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:04 PM ^
We need a big win today Wisconsin has nothing to lose since their already out of the tournament we have to play hungry. Let's Go blue
February 11th, 2018 at 1:21 PM ^
they’re*
February 11th, 2018 at 1:04 PM ^
Kind of bummed Rafferty isn't calling the game.
Go Blue!!!
February 11th, 2018 at 1:05 PM ^
Simpson take better shots and more consistency from Matthews. Is Livers ok?
February 11th, 2018 at 1:05 PM ^
Just win.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:05 PM ^
Michigan on the 8/9 line most places. Not that it’s shocking, but this would be a Q3 loss and could drop them down even further and put them on the bubble. For optics, would like to see them take care of a bad team even if it’s on the road.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:06 PM ^
We need Poole to get hot and give us some minutes off the bench
February 11th, 2018 at 1:52 PM ^
is always a good thing.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:06 PM ^
Livers is out today..damn
February 11th, 2018 at 1:06 PM ^
Livers in street clothes isn't a good start.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:06 PM ^
Could use a win here. Go Blue!!
February 11th, 2018 at 1:07 PM ^
Too bad no Livers. Still looked like he was limping. Hoping he can make a recovery befor the BTT.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:07 PM ^
auto-bench Matthews!
February 11th, 2018 at 1:08 PM ^
Nice drive by Simpson
February 11th, 2018 at 1:09 PM ^
by Simpson.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:09 PM ^
d looks good so far
February 11th, 2018 at 1:09 PM ^
Matthews strong layup! clearly they read our criticism after games here.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:09 PM ^
Matthews!
February 11th, 2018 at 1:10 PM ^
Wisconsin using every last second on the possession clock....some things never change.
Anyway, we could use the win here and get some momentum moving into these last couple weeks of the regular season.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:10 PM ^
Fast start?
February 11th, 2018 at 1:22 PM ^
I’m Ron Burgundy?
February 11th, 2018 at 1:11 PM ^
Feels good having a 2 game winning streak vs Badgers, it seems like they have not only been very good recently, they also seem to always get the lucky bounce vs. Michigan.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:12 PM ^
Simpson never seems to move without the ball
February 11th, 2018 at 1:12 PM ^
ready to play today. Nice job so far.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:13 PM ^
great start. love the aggressiveness. when the jump shots aren't falling, Drive it in.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:14 PM ^
Noticeable how bad Wisconsin is.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:27 PM ^
They need a talent infusion big time.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:40 PM ^
next year for them
February 11th, 2018 at 1:56 PM ^
And he is not that good. He should have fouled out in the first half, but some things never change. Refs turn a blind eye to any fouls by Wisconsin in the Troll Center.
Happ's offensive move consists of clearing space with his forearm or using his elbow to get past the defender. He is an undersized 5 who should be playing inside/outside but he is all Wisconsin has. I can't remember seeing them with such a dearth of shooters.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:14 PM ^
Great start. These layups should lead to a few open threes
February 11th, 2018 at 1:17 PM ^
Let’s go
February 11th, 2018 at 1:17 PM ^
Wisconsin is looking good this year. Gotta bring our A game today.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:19 PM ^
You mean 11-15 Wisconsin? I mean yes still need to play great to win in Madison, but not sure Wisconsin is looking too good.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:41 PM ^
Your meter is broken.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:24 PM ^
No. They are not.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:17 PM ^
amaizing how knocking down a few open 3s can make this team look great. that said, the D is playing great too. their lone basket was a tough shot.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:18 PM ^
I haven’t watched much b-ball this year, but damn...Poole’s shot looks really good
February 11th, 2018 at 1:18 PM ^
Finally a great start. Keep it going.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:19 PM ^
they started well in their last game, too. Up 13-3.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:20 PM ^
Does LSU still count as a notable loss? They are top 100 RPI.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:25 PM ^
They just mentioned during the game that we are 2-5 vs Q1 opponents. I believe the 2 wins are MSU and Texas. Losses: Purdue x2, OSU, Nebraska, North Carolina? That would mean LSU is not a top loss anymore.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:22 PM ^
to the lsu suspensions?
February 11th, 2018 at 1:20 PM ^
doing simmons things again
February 11th, 2018 at 1:20 PM ^
Felt like 2-3 travels on that possession. Simmons seems to palm the ball a lot
February 11th, 2018 at 1:20 PM ^
let brooks get some minutes.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:21 PM ^
holy crap, no D presence
February 11th, 2018 at 1:24 PM ^
Making one of the five best players in the conference work that hard is not no defensive presence. Sometimes Ethan Happ is good.
February 11th, 2018 at 2:00 PM ^
Give me a break. He is so overrated.
I'd take Keita, Bridges, both Edwardses, that Minnesota double-double machine guy and probably a few others over him.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:22 PM ^
never leaves his feet, but he does it there on D for an easy happ layup.
February 11th, 2018 at 1:22 PM ^
Matthews is the worst player on the floor for us.
