Michigan vs Michigan St. looking like one of the better Big 10 match ups of the year. It's been a very entertaining 1st half.

Did you expect 'nova to be better? They lost a lot from last year's team didn't they? nope.
always said if they made a Sweet 16 appearance i'd be more than happy
they lost Brunson, divencenzo, Spellman, bridges
huge losses. booth and paschal are the 'leftovers' - respectable upper classman - but no where near as talented as the above
paschal has morphed back into his old self from 2 years ago where's he's been disappearing a bit in late games.
it's pretty much fallen on the shoulder of booth and paschal and they're thin elsewhere. although this kid Bey has showed some flashes.
And their next game is Marquette. They could go into the NCAA with 10 losses (8 now, one against Marquette, one in the Big East and they still have a possible loss against Seton Hall). There's no way they should have a higher seed than #8. Committee could be kind and give them a #6 or #7 or be harsh and give them a #10. They lost a lot, got zero from their five star recruit, Jahvon Quinerly (9 mpg, 3.2 ppg). It happens, and its a testament to say that a 20 win season is a "down" season. But they still should have stomped on a mediocre Big East. #3 recruiting class coming in next year.

Michigan is really spreading the Spartans out. All 5 guys at the 3pt line on O.

their loss to st. johns last week was completely inexcusable - they were up 19 in the first half
they've been so guard dominant for years (with the exceptance of Ochefu in their title win a few years back against Carolina) - they have no floor general right now - not to beat a dead horse - but Gillespie is incredibly underwhelming and cracks under pressure - looks like a deer in the headlights - this after they had Brunson and Arch running the show - stepping up and being leaders - they were like QBs on the court. the kid can't shoot - turns the ball over at will and makes head scratching turnovers and decisions with the ball constantly.
all they do right now is launch from 3 too - they have '0' inside game. they shock me and make it to the Sweet 16 i'll be happy

Their Sweet 16 chances depend on their seed. Nova has to avoid the #8 -#9 seed. That team gets a toss up game against another big conference team, then gets the #1 (unless you're in Virginia's bracket). Villanova can't beat a #1 seed, Duke, Gonzaga, Kentucky etc. Get above the #8 seed and it's possible.

you think Marquette is final 4 good? 5 star recruits aren't what they used to be; the ratings system is majorly corrupted by the shoe companies.

Huge win for Sparty on the road, they did a great job on offense without a couple of their best players against the top tier Wolverines defense.

Markus Howard could pick a team up, put it on his back and take them to the Finals but I donβt see it. And five star recruits are like 1st round draft picks. You could sit here and name failures from now until the All-Star Break
