1. Men's Basketball vs Michigan State

starts at 1:00

It felt inevitable that this would be another game where Michigan chokes it away it down the stretch... but that didn't happen! Freshman point guard Dug McDaniel was Kenpom MVP, his best game of the season by far. Jett had an off game. Michigan out-rebounds Michigan State which was probably the biggest difference in this game. Not just one person, but the whole team was getting rebounds - clearly there was a team-wide message sent to everybody. Terrance Reed needs to be a starter on this team. If they go 4-1 down the stretch they'd probably end up on the bubble.

2. Men's Basketball vs Wisconsin

starts at 32:39

Wisconsin did not get a basket in the last 10:45 and won, Michigan just didn't have a 3rd scorer in this game. How did Tarris Reed only have 13 minutes? What exactly does this team consistently do well at? Still technically a shot at the tournament but hopes are dim.

3. Hockey vs Ohio State

starts at 44:29

This year, Ohio State is apparently the team that Michigan just can't figure out. Michigan might've looked like the better team for the first 35 minutes in Cleveland but Ohio State's goalie was a giant Velcro barrier. Michigan doesn't have a goalie coach and it showed a little bit this weekend. They gave up six odd-man rushes to Ohio State's zero. Would probably rather play Minnesota at this point.
