Game thread for Michigan vs. NU

[mshelton33]

Northwestern (15-6, 6-4 Big Ten) hosts Michigan (11-10, 5-5 Big Ten) tonight at 6 p.m. at Welsh-Ryan Arena. Northwestern dropped their first matchup with the Wolverines, 85-78, on January 15th. The Wildcats have won three of four since then, and are looking to exact vengeance and even the season series tonight.

Need some output from the Killer B's, Brean, Berry and Brooks to win this one,

30 points and 15 rebounds between them.

Here we go!

Brean is Robbie’s twin brother

Chase has some snazzy shoes, haven’t noticed them before.

I like Jett Howard’s shoes. I’d call them sexy ugly shoes. His dad still sucks.

 

[EagerFan]

Roper in play

 

[AdamOnFirst]

We’re getting dangerously back into “Chase is killing us by shooting too much and badly” territory lately

Update: we are definitely back into this territory

 

[benoitdenizetl]

Michigan getting lotta offensive boards. We’re out of sync early.

 

[TheC]

Not shooting well at all

 

[EagerFan]

Cats playing sloppy.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

The rebounding is ****ing pathetic. Carmody era shitty.

 

[TheC]

We don’t look good at all. It would be such a shame to lose this game. Michigan is not good.

 

[EagerFan]

Refs finally call a foul on Michigan that play, but it was the third or fourth on in the sequence geeezz.

 

[ballerog711]

Wow, Greenberg suggesting Beran play the 5. Imagine that.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Chase Audige: 0-7. Just flanked a step back 2 with his heel on the arc.
Everybody else: 6-12. Only Boo has more than 2 shots.

Chase is fully back on his old shit again.

 

[zbag51]

Can’t believe we are only down 2. This rebounding is horrendous

 

[AdamOnFirst]

0-9, JFC.

 

[GatoLouco]

Guys, I don’t think Chase is playing very well

 

[AdamOnFirst]

This is a bad half of basketball all around. Everybody involved should be pretty irritated.

Count me in

Maybe it would be better if he didn’t take 40% of the team’s shot tonight.

But there’s a good result, at least, draws that foul.

 

[IMC Cat]

That was like a Dirk-esque fade away high off the glass from Barny. A thing of beauty!

 

[FeralFelidae]

Chase did not eat his Wheaties today.

 

[EagerFan]

It’s a testament to how mediocre Michigan is this year that as badly as the Cats are playing, it’s a one point game.

Missing defensive assignments, losing their guy, fouling on the three, good grief.

 

[jensberg]

Chase just can't shoot

 

[Secho99]

Chase has to shoot less, but it doesn't help when other guys keep treating the ball like it's a hot potato. When other guys show some aggression it helps everything flow better. If not, we're stuck with endless Chase/Boo hucks.

 

[IMC Cat]

Wasn't it the Wisconsin game where Chase did nothing in the first half then dropped 16 in the second? Let's see that again.

Go Cats!

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Chase seems fired up

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Chase seems fired up

I lied, more stupid shots

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Wasn't it the Wisconsin game where Chase did nothing in the first half then dropped 16 in the second? Let's see that again.

The thing is on the first half today he didn’t “do nothing,” he took a huge number of shots, mostly bad.

Now that dumb foul. He is mentally out to lunch today.

 

[EagerFan]

Chase fouls the three.

Need to talk him down, he’s trying way to hard. Lots of time left to start feeling desperate.

 

[samuirocks]

And Beran disappears again. Is he even on the floor?

 

[TejasCat]

Let Audige sit for awhile, he is killing us, and no one else is creating any offense, why is the offense stagnant toNITE?

 

[TejasCat]

And Beran disappears again. Is he even on the floor?

Everyone watching boo and chase dribble like last year

 

[FeralFelidae]

I'm glad we're getting Michigan's run out of the way early in the half. They won't have any shots left in the cylinder during the home stretch.

 

[EagerFan]

They won’t need to if they run up 20 on us.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

This is a pathetic offensive performance. Pathetic.
