C’mon Illinois make it 9 straight vs. the skunk bears today

 

[swabs]

Michigan is gonna be 1 and done in the tourney if they can't make a 3 or rebound.

 

[SFBayDuck]

C’mon Illinois make it 9 straight vs. the skunk bears today

Looking like the team that put up 107 in Eugene a couple of months ago.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Awesome weekend as a Spartan.

MSU wins the B1G regular season in hockey

MSU wins a tough home game vs. a usually hot shooting high scoring Badger team to take sole possession of 1st place in the conference.

Illinois puts an old fashioned *** whooping on the skunk weasels down south.

Thank you Illinois

I swear, Maryland can not play well at PSU. I don't care if they had their best five players in history and it was five of us schlubs playing for Penn State. That gym is a house of horrors for the Terps.

I need a nap after that one

Good win. Crazy they hadn't won there in what a decade?

Yeah. They were like 2-20 million there all-time It's one of those weird quirks you see in college sports because - while Maryland is rarely an elite program - they certainly have been consistently better than Penn State and you'd think the law of averages would have them at least at .500 there.

The broadcast showed a stat that, of Maryland's 7 losses, the average defeat is by 3.9 points and I think the largest individual margin of defeat is 6 points (to Washington, of all teams).

Now they have to go to freaking Ann Arbor.

Please beat their ***

Well, I was hoping they'd beat MSU's *** last week

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Great night for college basketball tonight. Five games with top 25 teams and spreads under five points. Here’s to rooting for chaos and Maryland!

 

[urbanhack]

Nice century mark for the boilers. Smith and Loyer each made seven 3's!! Holy smokes...more of this please.

 

[SFBayDuck]

Ducks could not put away that pesky (but not particularly good) IU team last night. Shelstad with a deep three at the shot clock buzzer kicked off a 10-0 run late to finally get it done. Bittle didn't shoot well from the field but stuffed the stat sheet with a 14-7-6-4 game. And Bamba continues to struggle from the field, but that dude is a problem on D and has really dialed in on that end.

As with most Dana teams it's getting them on the same page on the defensive end that is the key to March success. They seem to be getting there as in these last two games IU shot 40%, USC 34%.

IU has been playing some really good ball lately. Nice win.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Should be a fun one in Ann Arbor.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Neither one of these teams can shoot tonight.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Let’s go Terps!

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Let’s go Terps!

Rugged 1st half. Maryland shot better later on. Michigan couldn't throw the ball in the ocean.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Congrats Terps. 5th road win, this one in front of tens of umaa fans at crisler

MSU clinches at least a share if the B1G title

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

I really like this Maryland team. Watched a lot of their games this season. Think they will definitely make some noise in the big dance

That was a really good win for MD. UM is a fine team and that's a tough gym to play in. The Terps' defense played great.

 

[Schmeabs]

Can someone explain to me why Michigan rivalry game in basketball is Michigan State but in football it is Ohio State?

Michigan has way too many scoring droughts. Can't see a way they win in E Lansing. Not playing well headed into the tourney. Was good to see them at least keep it close in the 2nd though.

Exactly.. When U of M plays OSU in football, there's usually something big on the line and both are good teams. In basketball when U of M plays MSU, usually something big is usually on the line and they are normally both good. MSU had a run where they were relevant in football and the rivalry was big between the two and then they went all "Waterboy".. "OH NO, WE SUCK AGAIN!"

Their unforced turnovers that come in bunches are head-scratching as well.

The beginning of the second half was brutal. Through it away like 5 or 6 straight times, but got lucky and Maryland missed their shots.

Some of that was the Terps' D - they jump passing lanes really fast - but UM was really sloppy for about 5 minutes in the 2nd half.

They've been subject to it a lot this season. I think at Purdue, they turned it over 9 times in only 11 or 12 minutes.

Yeah. I mean, you can't flip the ball like that for an extended period of time against good teams.

As for Maryland, they had a whopping FOUR points off of their bench. But I thought the bench gave the starters some good resting minutes without giving up much ground. Michigan was trying to wear Maryland down (I don't blame them) by running out every chance they had.

What do the Michigan fans think about Maye as a HC? I don't pay a lot of attention to UM, but he seems like someone who I'd like to root for.

Typical MSU crapfest vs. Iowa

Can't ask much more from a coach taking over a team that went 8-24 and pretty much had all new players. Seems to be getting the most out of guys who are not super talented.

Disagree a bit with the bolded. Both of UM's big guys are really skilled and they have some other really good players too.

Maryland's in a dogfight AGAIN with Northwestern. Can we get NW into the Ivy League somehow? I'm tired of those guys.

PSU over Bucky on the road. Wow

The Terps pulled away late on Julian Reese's Senior Day. He's been a great player for Maryland. I thought he was gone after his sister transferred away to LSU, but he stayed and finished one hell of a career.

I couldn't watch it because I don't have 17,000 streaming subscriptions. I think Maryland cliched the #3 seed in the B1GT, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

As of right now, yes. But they’ll get the #2 seed after MSU destroys umaa tomorrow

It's Michigan St. or Illinois only IMO.

I think the emergence or Richardson for MSU has completely changed this team. Their one weakness was not hitting from 3 but he's changed the dynamic of that offense.
