Michigan has played a far tougher schedule than us and ALL 3 of their losses have been 1-possession games, while their wins have generally more dominant against teams that could make the tourney.
They also already have a West Coast road win at SC over the weekend, so travel probably won't be as much a factor as it was in football.
They are also tall and height has caused us issues this year.
This could easily be our 2nd loss in a row, especially if Dailey and Kyle are still limited/out and our offense continues to sputter like a Yugo.
They do turn the ball over tho, so it would be an excellent strategy for Cronin to adjust to this team's offensive issues and to use the full court press again as a weapon, and not just token pressure and/or last resort.
