Wow this is a heated game considering the scoring margin! That was bizarre. PSUā€™s player was just exiting the court after fouling out and Dosunmu freaks out and starts getting up in his business.

I remember Ayo and Iggy getting into it at the end of a game in 2019. Little bit of a hothead maybe.

Incredible that it took 5+ minutes for this crew to sort that out. Truly incredible. I saw our friend DJ Carstensen is a part of the crew reffing. Iā€™m shocked.

I thought Dosunmu clearly deserved a tech, but not sure about the ejection with no punches or anything thrown.

We could learn something about both NW and IU tonight. Hoping for a good game

I thought the same thing. Probably the game that intrigued me most tonight heading into the evening, just because I really have no clue what to think of either of these teams yet. I have very strong prejudices against both due to coaching, but in 2020 anything can happen!

Is Rob Phinisee really considered one of the best perimeter defenders in the conference?

Pete Nance vs Brandon Johns was an notable recruiting storyline. Itā€™ll be interesting to compare the two careers when itā€™s all said and done. Nance looks like heā€™s taken a step, but his efficiency numbers have just gone from bad to meh. Johns still has the edge there. But Nance has obviously played more minutes as a starter and has a worse cast of characters around him.

White guy gets described as ā€œnot just a shooter,ā€ drink.

Oh shoot is it really? Iā€™ll stop now then hah

Iā€™m willing to test it and take one for the team (I know this is already getting old, this is the last time. I promise).

Indiana doesnā€™t even belong on the same floor as Northwestern. Itā€™s time to start considering Northwestern as the frontrunner for the Big Ten title.

Iā€™ll report back if I get banned.

I think stupid but fun things like that really add to the appeal of watching a game with other like minded people. But thatā€™s just me :upside_down_face:

Edit: I made the dumbest post Iā€™ve ever made here and changed my mind on it :joy: Click the pencil icon and then the left arrow twice if you want to see it. I will not compliment Northwestern until they continue to be good through January.

I think itā€™s time to find some lifeboats and get off Archie island, (if anyone was still there.)

In a normal season, assembly hall would be going absolutely insane right now and Iā€™d be declaring it over for Northwestern. But this is a weird season. All the rules are thrown out.

Considering the issues with fan participation at Crisler, I do not see this as a big negative for Michigan overall.

Pretty sure itā€™s just Dylan honestly :rofl:

I was honestly shocked when I heard Dylan say that on the latest pod. Heā€™s arguably in the top 2 of the most intelligent big 10 blog/website owners (Iā€™m sure Northwestern has a smart person too and he definitely beats out Inside the Hall Alex) and heā€™s already forgotten about the last time he went all out on Archie island!

Nance is a DUDE. Really surprised with how good he is this year.

I really appreciate the fact he can call himself out on it too. He even did so on the pod hah
