My winter break extended a little longer than planned. However, I've still been keeping up with the U-M hoops team, so here are some thoughts from tonight's 66-51 loss against the Illini.

first half was an ugly battle in which Michigan ended up with a one point advantage. For the Illini, Demetri McCamey had 15 of his 17 points in the first half, while 7'1" center Mike Tisdale had six...

off the Buckeyes despite being up 44-40 with 7:35 to play. The Buckeyes were the ones that seized the game with a 16-3 run over the next 6 ...

1/14/2009 – Michigan 51, Illinois 66 – 13-4, 3-2 Big Ten
Most Michigan fans expected a loss against Illinois yesterday, and the Illini duly provided said loss. UMHoops and others have covered the main reasons why, but here you go in pictoral form:
