Michigan Game Thread

[Henry Kendall]

Kendall's keys to the game: Birt's shooting and on defense Ray.

Let's get this going!

 

[jesterondirt]

We need success in the paint early and get freaking rebounds, eliminate Michigan second chance points.

Defending the Michigan three.****

Did I just see that commercial for American Standard?

American Standard toilets? That's what I use to take my Lunardi's.

 

[TU Hurricane Warning]

Leave it all on the court and see where you are at the buzzer!

Did it go down?

 

[Barlass]

Kohler is a better brand. Signed, your local ITS toilet salesman.

 

[barrister1602]

this thread is really crappy

 

[nevadanatural]

We can't turn the ball over like that.

 

[jesterondirt]

Freaking putback.....ughhhh

 

[jesterondirt]

Dammit, gotta have those free ones

 

[jesterondirt]

I like how fast were playing

 

[T Up]

They are going to run that high pick and roll all night. Got to stay in position!

 

[Henry Kendall]

Mich looks slow

 

[T Up]

This pace is definitely in our favor.

 

[bigzit]

why play DW? Seriously... Why?

 

[TU_BLA]

This pace is definitely in our favor.

Michigan isn't deep either. If we can get to the last 10 minutes of the game we should be able to run them ragged.

 

[bigzit]

Need Brandon's 8 points tonight. If think if he scores 8 we win. If doesn't we lose.
Need Brandon to play until he gets 5 fouls.

 

[I.I.]

Faster faster.

 

[bigzit]

Get to the basket. AND STOP MICHIGAN'S 2nd CHANCE POINTS!

 

[jesterondirt]

Their game plan was obviously to try and get fouls early, so far were playing decent defense

 

[TulsaEye]

Michigan is real good running the Princeton backdoor. Plus Tulsa being too lazy with their passing. MI is not flashy but very sound fundamentally.

 

[JesseTU]

Not in front of a TV. Might have to stream. Anyone with wifi know if the game on TruTV is streamable? This sucks.

Need updates.

 

[jesterondirt]

We need a timeout, next michigan score

 

[nevadanatural]

We need to take advantage while Michigan isn't shooting well.

 

[T Up]

Their freshman has season high 3 blocks in 8 minutes. I get so tired of opponents getting season highs against us.

 

[TulsaEye]

The game is on the the Trurtv.com site you just need a subscription with something like cable or directtv

 

[JesseTU]

Is Michigans game plan to jack up threes, or are they settling (game tracker)?

 

[TU_BLA]

Not in front of a TV. Might have to stream. Anyone with wifi know if the game on TruTV is streamable? This sucks.

Need updates.

You can use the CBS Sports App

Shaq came to play. He needs to keep driving. They haven't seen him.

 

[cmullinsTU]

This is a team that Shaq can absolutely destroy being aggressive and driving. Hope he continues. He has 5 of our 12 points so far.

 

[Henry Kendall]

Or go to ncaa.com. Use the app. It's great

 

[goldfan83]

Defense fine. If we made some shots, we would be up 10-15.

 

[TulsaEye]

Michigan is mostly a three shooting team plus they are good with the backdoor cuts Princeton style.

 

[TU_BLA]

Michigan shoots a lot of three's, that's who they are. Inside is not a danger. If we can limit the good looks from outside, which we have done so far, we will be OK. They don't really have anyone inside for rebounds in those shots either. We are looking to push the ball at every opportunity as well. D is playing well, getting off screens pretty well. We seem to over commit on the help D when they drive baseline not that I really think they can be terribly effective trying that.

And if Shaq keeps hitting the mid range shots...

 

[RealTUTypical]

8-0 run!

 

[TulsaEye]

Smith might be done for the night.

 

[TulsaCane12]

Well damn. Hopefully smith can come back. Didn't look good though. He was playing incredibly hard!

 

[TU_BLA]

What a difference with qualified refs
