Caleb Love is 1-7 in the first half. FSU is a bad matchup for UNC. They’re the only team that can match their size
@kturnup, that’s a data point re earlier discussion of whether Michigan’s scuffling or not. Clear discrepancy post-break and pre. Not that it proves my point definitively or anything, but there’s some data…

Michigan at 9th is scuffling? Still not my definition of scuffling.
Heart. Beating. Too. Fast.

4th to 9th is a pretty big drop with most of the season already played.
I do think Michigan has lost a little mojo since the break…but playing the better yes in the league will do that.
It’s just 9th “in that timespan” though. I don’t think that’s a huge drop to be honest and I’ve been messing with those numbers quite a bit of late.

Valid point, though they destroyed Iowa. Had no business losing to Sparty. Sorta janky today – Maryland was within 5 with ~8 mins to go or whatever it was. To me seems to be more health issues than anything else other than Illinois just having to have that win, so it doesn’t have to be blamed on the players playing poorly or anything.

Not huge, no. But noticeable, and fits as one arrow pointing in the same direction as some others that fit. Today’s Maryland win did not fit the trend of the other two Maryland wins.
No team can play at a top 4 level for every 1 month span of the season. Unless you’re Gonzaga. Note that Baylor is 34 in that span. THAT is a drop off, or scuffling. If scuffling is being a top 9 team that just affirms that we are the 2nd best team
Michigan’s BARTHAG in that span is .9499, for the season is .9536. That’s not a noticeable drop

Yeah in just the past 24 hours we have seen it “confirmed” that
-Turgeon told Juwan that his banners come down
-Juwan told Turgeon he was going to kill him
-Livers is out for the year.
And now we know for sure that at least the last two happened. I’m just impressed with Turgeon’s bravery for getting in Juwan’s face AFTER Juwan definitely told him he was going to murder him.

DDJ & Cincy trying to hold on against Wichita St, up 2 with 20 secs left. Dakich back calling games, interesting…
DDJ left earlier in the season. Edit: oops I guess he came back
He re opted jn
Sorry if it sounds like whining but to comment, this Livers injury and subsequent loss today is ruining my absolute favorite time of year. I’m not even enjoying any of the other games today. I need to get over myself but it sucks

Is the consensus we are still a 1 seed even with the Livers injury? Curious if anyone thinks OSU or Alabama could surpass us with a win tomorrow?
