Michigan went down to MSU last night--reminded me of the Bruins

game against Minnesota. Mich played reasonably well in the first half leading by 4 at the half 38 to 34. Then they apparently forgot how to play (on their home court with 12,500 screaming fans in the stands) both on offense and defense the second half as they were outscored by MSU 41 to 24. Even top conference teams can have those kinds of nights as Michigan really looked bad the second half. That's Big 10 basketball.

MSU's guards showed that they are better than Michigan's and they pretty much took over the second half. MSU's Richardson, Fears and Holloman hit 7 of 12 threes and scored 49 points among the three. Michigan's Donaldson, Jones and Gayle hit 3 of 14 threes and scored a measly 10 points total among the three. MSU also outrebounded the big Michigan team. No contest and my Michigan wife was really pissed.

Another thing. With all of the talk of Dusty May and Indiana, May is staying at Michigan as they signed him to an extension through 2030 with a raise in pay plus a 1 million bump in pay each year. Plus his buyout is 7.5 million.
