Michigan is now the 20th ranked team in the nation and that is a 1000 miles from where they were last season. Dusty has done a tremendous job of making Michigan Basketball relevant again.
Still when Michigan visited Purdue a couple weeks ago, it was over quickly as Michigan kept turning the ball over and Purdue got easy baskets. It was a blow out. Tonight, the Boilermakers enter Crisler as the #7 team in the nation. Dusty has replaced Gale (the OSU Double Agent as my son calls him) in the starting lineup. Too bad we are not getting the Texas State Jones who shot from a high percentage from 3 and can defend. He is the guy that goes for 30 in a Big Ten or NCAA Tournament game, right?
I really like Sam Walters offensive game and wish he could get more floor time. His issue is, he can't guard a folding chair. I think that is why they go zone when he is in the game. Michigan needs a highlight win and this could be it tonight if they protect the ball and are efficient on offense.

- I forgot to mention yesterday that Michigan had 4 players in the Super Bowl but 2 were on the not active list (Uche and Keegan). Have to have all Wolverines active!
- Brady was sporting a $740K watch on the broadcast. I hear some of his watch collection is up for auction. Wouldn't that be a nice item in your Wolverine collection? TB12 Rolex! Yes, please!

Problem is Purdue is a BAD match up for Michigan. Michigan is going to turn the ball over. It's in their DNA. At this point in the season, its not getting fixed. Purdue feasts on teams that turn the ball over. It's why the game in West Lafayette was such a rout. Hopefully Michigan can make it more of a game, but I won't be putting any money on the Wolverines in this game.
