Michigan is one of those teams that when they are on, there is literally no one they can't beat. That offense is so ridiculously potent that if their shots are falling, it doesn't matter what defense they're playing.

Originally posted by DanO View PostYa I know. UM's seem to last longer. Maybe it just seems like that to me.
Look at Bielines record in the NCAA tourney with Michigan, and rejoice the fact he gets them there.
He is bringing roundball back to M.I long for a Lions team that is consistently competitive.

Michigan is indeed the underdog but because of the betting on the game to even out the bets.
5 Froshes for Tuckey=Nice run, maybe next year.I long for a Lions team that is consistently competitive.

Kentucky is the favorite, and rightfully so. They've looked a lot better against tougher opponents than Michigan has.Last edited by chemiclord; March 30, 2014, 10:20 AM.

Michigan is going to have trouble with their size and athleticism. Every starter for Kentucky is 6-6 or taller.
This is a match up of one of the best rebounding teams (Kentucky) vs a Michigan team that struggles sometimes with rebounding.
If Michigan doesn't go 10-18 on 3's or something like that (which has happened several times this season), I think Kentucky will win. ... but even with that, it will be tough. Louisville shot 49.3% and only had 10 turnovers... still lost to a Kentucky team that shot 43% and had 12 turnovers.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeill

What Wolvy CAN'T do is what they did two nights ago. They can't fall asleep at the wheel and watch as Kentucky turns up their game.
