Preview: Michigan vs. Ohio State

    Tonight's game against Ohio State is the closest thing to a must-win the Wolverines have had all season. Will they do it?

    Well i guess a must win if we want to win the Big Ten regular season but not for anything else.

    My player to watch in this game is Robinson III. Really interested to see how he responds to his poor performance against Indiana. This team cannot make it past the elite 8 without Robinson playing at least half way decent against good teams.

  • Oh and yes Michigan wins. I like the 8 point prediction by Thomas in this game.

    I think they want to win the Big Ten regular season title.

    lol Yeah. I didn't really mean it like that. I was more saying that is the only thing it would really hurt. Well and maybe getting a #1 seed for the tourney but a loss wouldn't hurt the goals of a BTT championship or National title.

  • Michigan seems to play a lot better defense at home, as a lot of teams do, and with the crowd behind them I think OSU's offense is gonna struggle to score tonight. The key will be to keep DeShaun Thomas in check. He's the one guy who no matter how much everyone around him is struggling will get his own offense going. Another key will obviously be how Burke plays. I hope he doesn't try to force too many things trying to win the individual battle against Craft. That's the worst thing you can do against a scrappy defender like him. Trey is such an incredible player, he just needs to let the game come to him and he'll do just fine.
