Michigan is very mediocre defensively. Luckily for them, they're also the best offensive team left in the tourney.

Unluckily for them, they're reliant on jump shots, and it's just a matter of time before they go cold for 40 minutes.

Luckily for them that is pretty uncommon and they only need 3 more wins

Yeah they have not been good. It was the reason they were gonna get killed in the tourney last year, then in the B1G this year, then have an early exit this year... Michigan may or may not be UK tomorow, but they should still be taken as actual NC contenders

Never said they werent, doesnt change the fact their defense has been suspect all season.

Michigan fans, few years of getting beat in football and you get all uppity.

unlike a certain little brother team's fans, i'm pretty sure ohio state's fanbase hasn't been operating under the pretense that their basketball team was anywhere close to being elite for the entire calendar year of 2014

I didn't even pick my team to go to the Final Four so if they make it they will have surprised me.. And tbh, no team is elite this year.. There are no Memphis 07, or UNC 08..

Any given monday.... It's hard to beat someone 4 times in a year but they match up nice, no WCS hurts. Florida is strong as hell all those seniors but MSU is going to be a hard matchup to even get there. Just like Michigan tomorrow for us although I think we win closer than than last two.

Welp, that was an awful game. Congrats to WIsconsin, they damn sure deserved this win more than we did. It sucks to say it but in retrospect that Ashley injury killed any chance we had of making a FF, which really undermines a great season, really the best overall season we've had in over a decade. I thought this team was going to be great, they weren't, but the few moments they were clicking on all cylinders did a damn good job fooling me.

Someone should tell U Conn they don't need to show up tomorrow. Too many of you all are counting them out. You have seen this tournament, right?

We also aren't losing to Kentucky of all the schools remaining. This is Florida's year. Everyone else is just along for the ride.

Yep. We were a James Young slip away from beating them a few weeks ago.

But that's looking really far ahead. I'm just worried about how we guard Michigan's wings.

UK is 0-3 against UF this year, blowing them out once even, and you want to count 1st rounders? I've heard of talking smack, but it usually comes from a place of equality and competition. Not seeing how UK holds a candle to this UF squad.

Honestly I'm more worried about Kentucky than Michigan. Don't get me wrong Michigan can beat us but Randle and those twins worry me more

Obviously Michigan can beat Wisconsin as they already have, but the same can be said the other way around? That would be the ultimate tie breaker

I'm sorry but I don't want to hear about a fan bragging about having NBA players.. Especially the UK fan basically ripping on another team for their lack of them..

Well I agree with that. Like I said, talking about a Florida matchup is assuming so muh. Michigan tomorrow scares me plenty. Our perimeter defense against Louisville was atrocious and Michigan's wings are way better collectively. They could shoot us out of the game before halftime.

Wasn't directly referring to you as counting NBA 1st rounders. The others were arguing 3 on Michigan... Your team is built differently than most, guys developed and were a great team from day one. Cals had our guys in the gym for hours a day still trying to gel as a team they just now coming in to there own these last few weeks. That championship game of SEC was a far different team than the one you crushed a few weeks earlier.

How many of those guys did Cal buy along with World Wide Wes?

4 more coming next year.

And then they would let you right back in it at around the 10 minute mark of the 2nd half like they do every time they get a big lead...

Damn Kentucky fans sound just like MSU fans lol
