We have no answer for Trey Burke and Hardaway Jr. Beatdown.
I hope Michigan used up all their hot shooting in Evanston last night, they put on one hell of a show from behind the arc. I am hoping for a Hawkeye victory every game but this one I have had chalked up as a loss since I saw the schedule. I hope they prove me wrong Sunday!!
Go Hawks
I believe this game is more winable than the game against Indiana. Indiana is a deeper team, with better post presence. Burke is the best guard in the league and Hardaway is a talented 2 guard. I think Marble finally gets sick of being in Hardaway's shadow and plays lights out. Morgan will get some points against Woody and Gabe, but not the 19 that Zeller had. The main thing we have going for us is that our opponent 3 pt percentage is pretty good, and that is how they make their runs. So if we can keep them to making less than 6 three pointers, it puts us in a good position. If we don't get in the habit of chucking three's, we will keep it close. My heart says 80-72 Hawks, my brain says 85 - 75 Wolverines.

LOL. More winnable than Indiana? We had trouble the last time we played a team with good guards on the road. Now imagine that team, but like 8 times better. Michigan 82- Iowa 66
There's that optimism we all dearly love.
