Brooks has a pretty tough defender on him for this game. Should be interesting to see if he can break out of his 2 game shooting slump.
I wouldn't be surprised if we press quite a bit in this game to get Michigan out of their sets.

Michigan doesn't rebound well. We gotta really take advantage of the boards this game. This is the game where Bocuher will really be missed.

I think on the boards is the one area that Kavell is actually better than Boucher. He's definitely stronger, and I think he goes after the ball more aggressively.UOducksTK1 wrote:Michigan doesn't rebound well. We gotta really take advantage of the boards this game.

Bell has been cleaning up on the boards recently, as have Ennis and Dorsey, so I think we will do a good job.

Good article on how Brooks handled the Coach K. "scandal".

Nice to see the team staying loose while preparing

Think we see Bell and KBW play together a little bit to match up with Michigan's length? They are already a poor rebounding team, and not only would that lineup exploit that weakness it would force a better matchup for Brooks who'd be playing the 3 instead of the 4.
This is a game where we might really miss Boucher. With him we'd likely blow them out, but now it looks to be a close one.

Agree....I would probably take the foul risk and play them both at the same time a little more this gameduck541 wrote:Think we see Bell and KBW play together a little bit to match up with Michigan's length?

Seems like a complete tossup to me. I could see either team winning by ten or anything in between. I just really hope our guys play a strong game and leave it all on the floor – whatever else happens, I want to come away thinking we gave it our best shot.Ducks10 wrote:I am extremely nervous for this one.
