But the way Michigan is shooting and Wisconsin shoots it always, it could be a great game.
Yeah, I think so as well. It would definitely be better than Wisconsin vs. Michigan State in 2000 based sheerly on Duany Duany not being there. Lol. Think that game was in the 40s. Just agonizing to watch.

Grant Hill just defended the piss out of him.

I was there and it actually gave me a MASSIVE headache. My dad and I spent the entire time between games trying to find some Advil or something. Never did. Florida/UNC was so exciting I didnt have a headache after about 10 minutes in lol.

But, nothing can be worse than UCONN/Butler, so I guess it doesnt have to be conference teams lol

I think I remember posting about how good Marcus Lee was going to be in November. I love that he'll be here for a few years.

I mean, I was 6. But didnt he have a strained back in that game from the S16 match-up?

Also, no shame in Grant shutting you down.

Grant was so fucking good on defense. So long and so smart....Robinson had a bad back but it was way more talked about than showing on the court.

3/4 of the ball was still in the cylinder. Not like it was close.

Again, you're really wanting to see it. I'm rooting for UM but just (trying) to enjoy the game. I didn't see it until the replay

With the crowd and announcers, you'd think Kentucky was up 20 LOL. But just glad to be in the game.

Um, it's the job of the officials to see it. They aren't just watching the game.

Lol, just so everyone here is clear, though, it was Dick Bennett who induced that migraine, not Bo Ryan :) Bo has a much more exciting style.

For the record, I have thoroughly enjoyed watching Wisconsin this year lol.

It might have some to do with Nigel Hayes, but I think a lot more to do with Bo Ryan actually playing an exciting style. He has adapted well to this team and not being allowed to mug people on defense.

Hawkins on Stauskas quietly gave him fits the last 4-5 minutes. That's ALL he can do is become a pest on D. He can't shoot or really pass. Stauskas is getting some calls, but UK is being stupid and keeps hedging screens and trying to then switch. It has allowed Stauskas to get a step to the rack twice. They need to play that straight up and make one of the roll men, Morgan or Horford actually attempt a non-dunk shot.

The refs will get crushed every year by every fan base. I'm not going to defend them, some of the calls are ridiculous, and even worse, the WAY games are called are ridiculous. Some games are played by the new rules. Other games look like Louisville games pre-2014 but without the fouls called. Officiating these games is tough, but at least be consistent and call it the same way. A foul is a foul, no matter how ticky tack they are.
