I and I'm sure many others would have been there if not for the early tip on a week day

Is it just because I'm on my phone or do they really have 300 posts per page for a thread? Every time I go to another site like that I'm reminded how badly this site has spoiled me.

Also found it hilarious that they didn't credit our defense for shutting down their shooting and saying that we are a terrible/NIT team.

We almost held Iowa state scoreless from 3 a couple seasons ago. Frank martin is known for his defense. And if they just got their arse handed to them by an NIT team what does that make their team?

I counted 400 ... over 600 for the thread. Some pretty decent observations. Some typical frustrations on their part.

There were a couple posters in there who actually understood Frank Martin basketball and recognized the good defense, which was good to see. The rest were melt-tacular. Seems like a lot of fans of these "name brand" schools can't comprehend that they may be worse than a school like South Carolina in a sport.

One poster boasted that they got a Beat Ohio chant going in the arena before tip off....I guess they should have focused on the current opponent.

Yeah because the reason that Michigan shot 10/52 on the game and 2/26 from 3 is totally 100% defense and schemes

Play a team that's hot and it don't matter the scheme you're running. Switch AU and USCjr's opponents and you'd still come up with about the same results.

South Carolina has fared better against Ohio State in football in recent years than Michigan has. Michigan is currently riding a 1-11 record against OSU in the last 12 yrs - the lone win came during the NCAA-penalty year after Tressel was fired, and OSU went 6-7 that year...

No one said it was entirely because of the defense but it was definitely due more to USC's defense than Michigan having a "cold night". We were switching our defense from one possession to the next possession at some points in the game, going from zone to man and back to a different zone. We also didn't let them get out in transition.

LOL no way we give up 96 to Purdue. Don't shite on us just because you got raped by them.

Haha. We actually play great defense. Sorry we don't give up 96 to Purdue. That's pathetic. We beat a top 25 team and you guys got hammered. Go find some other thread to make excuses in.

I told someone the other day that the only reason Auburn was undefeated was bc they hadn't played anyone good. Then as soon as they played a good Purdue team, they get destroyed. The #Roadto40-0 is over for them now

Pearl is actually working out exactly like I thought. Martin had a 2 year head start on Pearl and Auburn is already passing your program up.

I'm glad you're having fun with your defensive small-ball shite right now but that ain't going to take you very far.

Based on what? Certainly not by the ranked Big 10 opponents metric.

Didn't we smack the piss out of AU @AU last year?

They have a quality loss though. We don't.

Checkmate. :(
