Well, now its today...

Yeah, I kind of figured that out yesterday looking at the bracket. I don't know if this is a good thing or bad. The team looked pretty tired after the Duke loss and now they have to face a team fresh off a beatdown of Chaminade. Hopefully, they can get some energy.

i think you're getting your teams mixed up. UCLA got beat by kansas last night. pretty much did the same thing as us. Down big early, came back but still lost.

Yeah, i realized that later in the day...oh well

Minnesota loses Trevor Mbakwe for the season to an ACL. Ouch, he's a nice player.

Wow! That's like their only player. If not for the labor crap in the nba, he might've been able to go pro last year...now he'll probably redshirt and stay at Mn another season...sucks for him and us. I got tired of watching him last year.

Eh, I'd rather face him next season than this year. Especially off an injury

Right, a high volume rebounder coming off of ACL surgery doesn't scare me much.

Yah 2 road games in the B1g-ACC challenge in a row is bs.

THe btn guys were saying that they think Michigan is going to get upset...you think the ACC talking heads ever say shit like that?

Man! We get the worst announcers, commentators, and analysts.

Just give me Gus Johnson man. Some people find him annoying but I think he's good for the game. Entertains n makes it exciting. I don't need a guy giving me a million opinions on why Darius Morris needs to quit throwing 1 handed passes. (Jimmy Jackson)

Love me some Gus Johnson. Def one of the best play-by-play guys in any sport....

Sounds like it's going to be a slow struggle. Can't turn the ball over.

Pretty pumped for this game!

Slow paced game last night, Michigan didn't handle UVA's relentless on ball pressure very well. That could be a problem (as it has been before) as the season continues for UM. Trey Burke and Timmy need to be able to get easy buckets for other players by breaking down an on ball defender playing that tightly, getting penetration and pulling help defense. It's only 1 game though, no need to panic..Virginia so far looks to be a premier defensive team in the country. It's a young season and UM is just coming back from Hawaii...they'll be better.

Yep, a win over Iowa St and Michigan will still be looking pretty good in this nonconference season.

Big bounceback game tomorrow. Didn't read the preview yet, but Iowa St is 5-2 with relatively easy wins over nobody's, and losses @ Drake and home against Northern Iowa. Last year they had a similar/better start, but went on to only win three Big 12 games. I'm totally fine with the Virginia loss, but this is one that probably wouldn't look so good at the end of the season. Hopefully the team is re-energized now that they're back home.
