have avoided bad losses like Michigan this year. A few years ago they barely got by NW in OT and played a brilliant game against Indiana to make the tournament, so one game doesn't have to mean anything about the next.
And I've watched more hoops than I ever have this year. I haven't seen a top 15 team face the adversity (and by adversity I mean horrible whistle) like U-M faced in this game. It was absurd.
I give them credit for winning, and yeah, I get that they need to make free throws and shoot better, etc., but it's a sign of mental toughness when you can defend like that in the second half when nothing is falling.
Just win, baby. And hope they got the stinker out of their system.
