realizes that just a few more turnovers or mental errors could take them down. A lot of close games (other than UCLA and Wash). In Big 10 games, their only two blowouts have been against UCLA and Washington. All the rest of their wins have been very competitive games with close scores and they could have been easily beaten in most all of them. In their two Big 10 losses, Minnesota beat them by 3 points in an OT and Purdue blew them out by 27 points. So Mrs traprh has good reason to be nervous. IMO, UCLA has improved significantly since the Michigan game but Michigan has pretty much stayed at the same level--based on their games we've watched (all of them).
Even though they beat UCLA by 19 points at Pauley, I believe the Bruins would now have a good chance to take them down on a neutral court and maybe even at Crisler Center. It would most likely be a close game though and one that could go either way.
