NCAA 2019: Michigan vs. Texas Tech Open Thread

As we’ve all been saying for years, Michigan really needs to spend more practice time focusing on offense and stop only caring about one side of the floor :joy::joy::joy:

You’re an asshole

Defense is legit doesn’t seem like Michigan is getting their feet under their shots though

Word is out, pack it in against a beilein o and they are done barring a big shooting night

We’ve had at least 3 3’s that have been halfway down and back out. I think we’re getting some decent looks … when we’re not turning the ball over.

Sort of think this was inevitable. Hard to go far with shooters like this.

24% turnover rate, almost all of our threes have been poor looks. Probably only 2 or 3 good looks out of 9.

Because I agreed Z has had a bad game? Sorry, my bad.

… so basically the opposite of how to play every Beilein team pre 2017-18 (not disagreeing with you).

I really wouldn’t say they “collapsed” in many close games… if you’re referring to BTT final State just made plays down the stretch. And it takes mental toughness to close teams out the way we have in a ton of games this year (vs Wisconsin, vs Maryland, vs UNC come to mind off the top of my head.)

It’s not like we’re playing the best defense in the country…

Hopefully coaches can remind them to have fun. If they loosen up we will win. Most of our offense has been self check imo. Throwing the ball away , bad decisions , handing it off 35 feet from the hoop over and over wasting half the clock. Their a good d team but we’re plsying really stupid and scared.

Hopefully they remember what their capable of in time.

30-6 because our defense is incredible

Agreed. But they were careless imo. Lots of bobbling if the ball. Playing scared. Let’s hope they come out aggressive.

We have the 16th best offense in the country.

if it makes anyone feel better this UVA/Oregon game is a brickfest as well.

Anthony making my point–threes have been there.
