Wow, this is depressing. Is this program cursed or what?

Well is wasn’t Covid that got us, but a bunch of knuckleheads. For all those out there who wanted a shakeup in the starting 5, here you go. Let’s see what we’re made of, and good for CMW doing the right thing!

We’ll that was disappointing because I really thought we would win today, but Illinois was the better team. We have a lot of work to do, but we competed the entire game and gave it our best shot. It just wasn’t good enough. We’ll bounce back and still finish in the upper half of the B10, which will be a big improvement considering where we’ve been the past few years. Anyway, it’s fun to watch and have hope again that we’ll win games like this rather than dreading the outcome.

Would love to see Illinois beat Wisconsin tonight and then we beat Illinois on Saturday. They would both have 3 losses and we would be in great shape in the standings heading into the home stretch.

Much like Baylor last year.

Nebraska up by 6 at Michigan with 7:00 to play. Michigan 1-12 from three at home. Didn’t they shoot about 80% from 3 against us? Seems like everybody plays their best game of the season when they play us.

I’m 68, so Ive seen a lot over the years and would rate them accordingly. Even though Kentucky isn’t in the B10, I have to include them in any list. 1. PU 2. UK 3. MSU 4. OSU 5. ILL

With that schedule, I’ll take 3 out of 5 and be thrilled, but this team has the potential to win all of them, and I’m sure that’s what the coaching staff has in mind.

Woody is bringing this team along nicely and building momentum at the right time. Can you imagine, if this was still Archie’s team? What a difference a coach can make when players are allowed to play freely and know their coach is in their corner. It was so painful to watch the last few years, and now it’s fun again!

Now let’s see if we can play a solid 40 minutes on the road for the win, and then go home and get ready for Illinois.

Thanks, I needed that!

I’m feeling really good about tonight’s game….am I delusional?

No question we played really poor defense against the 3, but you still have make the shot even when wide open. Let’s face it, Michigan played out of their minds… just happens sometimes. We’ll bounce back and beat PSU by double digits.

As disappointing as this was, it wasn’t totally unexpected, especially after acting like we had won the national championship against Purdue. I can understand the excitement, but that just set us up for failure today. My guess is that we’ll bounce back and will be ready for Penn St and win easily. Still a lot of the season left, with plenty of time for more big wins.

Not much to say…we were never in the game. The classic let down after a big win.

Well we’re lucky to only be down by 8.

When you’re 7 ft, you don’t have to jump too high!

As good as our guards were last night, and don’t get me wrong they were fantastic, we don’t win that game without Durr’s outstanding defense on Edey and Williams. To hold those two guys to a combined 14 pts is really unbelievable, especially for a guy that averages about 5 min a game. I doubt that TJD would have done any better than that even if he had played most of the game. I haven’t looked at the stats, but I doubt anyone has done a better job against those guys all season long. Way to go Durr…you stepped up big time!

Correction - the team had 3 TOs, but Rob and XJ has 0 TOs between them.

Rob and XJ - 38 pts, 6 assists and ONLY 3 TOs!

Now let’s get Michigan on Sunday!

Wow!

Don’t want to get too excited…a long way to go, but WOW what a half!
