They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season.

You could also argue Jones has earned that status with his play the second half of the season.<br> <br> Everyone else is either too raw and/or just not *that* great to give them an automatic 30 or more minutes. Diabete is not experienced enough to work it out and figure out what to do / what not to do while on the court.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

Iowa couldn't miss a shot in the first 5 to 10 mins of the game and we couldn't make a basket to save our lives...</p> <p>rotation D sucks, has sucked all year long. there were multiple times that if someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half... Cut that number in half and there might have been a better result in the end... </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/09/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 4825</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484551&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zJuYgmRhIxPP9UK2MrnOIXr81OOLPyAfHacn0vu3FcY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2048" id="comment-244484555" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">PeteM</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646400672"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555#comment-244484555">March 4th, 2022 at 8:31 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T13:31:12+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I know little about basketball strategy so take this for what it's worth, but I was there and my seats are in the section behind the south basket, which Michigan defended in the 1st half. It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Baseball Roundup Is In Crunch Time</h1> <p>Alex.Drain — Thu, 07 May 2026 19:27:32 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half...

It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>WTKA Roundtable 5/7/2026: Go Be Great</h1> <p>Seth — Thu, 07 May 2026 14:07:17 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

You could also argue Jones has earned that status with his play the second half of the season.<br> <br> Everyone else is either too raw and/or just not *that* great to give them an automatic 30 or more minutes. Diabete is not experienced enough to work it out and figure out what to do / what not to do while on the court.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

Iowa couldn't miss a shot in the first 5 to 10 mins of the game and we couldn't make a basket to save our lives...</p> <p>rotation D sucks, has sucked all year long. there were multiple times that if someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half... Cut that number in half and there might have been a better result in the end... </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/09/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 4825</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484551&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zJuYgmRhIxPP9UK2MrnOIXr81OOLPyAfHacn0vu3FcY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2048" id="comment-244484555" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">PeteM</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646400672"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555#comment-244484555">March 4th, 2022 at 8:31 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T13:31:12+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I know little about basketball strategy so take this for what it's worth, but I was there and my seats are in the section behind the south basket, which Michigan defended in the 1st half. It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Softball Roundup Is On The Bubble</h1> <p>Alex.Drain — Wed, 06 May 2026 13:38:53 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half...

It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>VALIANT: A 2026 National Championship Yearbook</h1> <p>Seth — Tue, 05 May 2026 14:01:31 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

You could also argue Jones has earned that status with his play the second half of the season.<br> <br> Everyone else is either too raw and/or just not *that* great to give them an automatic 30 or more minutes. Diabete is not experienced enough to work it out and figure out what to do / what not to do while on the court.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

Iowa couldn't miss a shot in the first 5 to 10 mins of the game and we couldn't make a basket to save our lives...</p> <p>rotation D sucks, has sucked all year long. there were multiple times that if someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half... Cut that number in half and there might have been a better result in the end... </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/09/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 4825</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484551&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zJuYgmRhIxPP9UK2MrnOIXr81OOLPyAfHacn0vu3FcY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2048" id="comment-244484555" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">PeteM</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646400672"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555#comment-244484555">March 4th, 2022 at 8:31 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T13:31:12+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I know little about basketball strategy so take this for what it's worth, but I was there and my seats are in the section behind the south basket, which Michigan defended in the 1st half. It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Unverified Voracity Finds Another</h1> <p>Brian — Mon, 04 May 2026 17:11:01 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half...

It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story.

They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

You could also argue Jones has earned that status with his play the second half of the season.<br> <br> Everyone else is either too raw and/or just not *that* great to give them an automatic 30 or more minutes. Diabete is not experienced enough to work it out and figure out what to do / what not to do while on the court.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

Iowa couldn't miss a shot in the first 5 to 10 mins of the game and we couldn't make a basket to save our lives...</p> <p>rotation D sucks, has sucked all year long. there were multiple times that if someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half... Cut that number in half and there might have been a better result in the end... </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/09/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 4825</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484551&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zJuYgmRhIxPP9UK2MrnOIXr81OOLPyAfHacn0vu3FcY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2048" id="comment-244484555" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">PeteM</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646400672"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555#comment-244484555">March 4th, 2022 at 8:31 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T13:31:12+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I know little about basketball strategy so take this for what it's worth, but I was there and my seats are in the section behind the south basket, which Michigan defended in the 1st half. It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Hello: Sidney Rouleau</h1> <p>Alex.Drain — Fri, 01 May 2026 17:26:23 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half...

It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story.

They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

You could also argue Jones has earned that status with his play the second half of the season.<br> <br> Everyone else is either too raw and/or just not *that* great to give them an automatic 30 or more minutes. Diabete is not experienced enough to work it out and figure out what to do / what not to do while on the court.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

Iowa couldn't miss a shot in the first 5 to 10 mins of the game and we couldn't make a basket to save our lives...</p> <p>rotation D sucks, has sucked all year long. there were multiple times that if someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half... Cut that number in half and there might have been a better result in the end... </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/09/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 4825</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484551&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zJuYgmRhIxPP9UK2MrnOIXr81OOLPyAfHacn0vu3FcY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2048" id="comment-244484555" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/petem" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">PeteM</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646400672"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484555#comment-244484555">March 4th, 2022 at 8:31 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T13:31:12+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I know little about basketball strategy so take this for what it's worth, but I was there and my seats are in the section behind the south basket, which Michigan defended in the 1st half. It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> <article> <h1>WTKA Roundtable 4/30/2026: Never Made a Bracket</h1> <p>Seth — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 14:07:47 +0000</p> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Iowa 82, Michigan 71</span> <div class="field field--name-field-published-date field--type-datetime field--label-hidden field__item"><time datetime="2022-03-04T04:33:57Z" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/alexdrain" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Alex.Drain</a></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2022-03-03T23:33:57-05:00" title="Thursday, March 3, 2022 - 11:33pm" class="datetime">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:33 PM</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> </picture> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-photo-caption-1 field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Keegan Murray was one of Iowa's stars tonight [Marc-Gregor Campredon]</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Senior Night at Crisler Center provided Michigan with an opportunity to secure their position on the NCAA bubble heading into the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis, if they could beat #24 Iowa at home. They could not. A hot Iowa shooting night combined with poor Michigan finishing in the paint early on and a wretched energy level in the first half to doom the Wolverines to a 82-71 loss to the Hawkeyes Thursday night. Eli Brooks shone in his final appearance at Crisler, scoring 17 points, but he did not get nearly enough help from his teammates on either end of the court until it was too late. The Wolverines will now head to Columbus in a still-precarious bubble position on Sunday, getting ready for the postseason. </p> <p>The first half was the central problem for Michigan. Iowa got off to a hot start out of the gate and never slowed down during the full twenty minute period, posting a searing 72% eFG%. The Hawkeyes were 7/10 from three in the first half and the defensive effort from Michigan was exceptionally poor. Iowa got everything they wanted inside and knocked down their shots outside and in the process, hung a near half-century on the Wolverines to build a massive halftime edge. Keegan Murray led Iowa in the first half with 15 points on 5/6 from the floor and was perfect on his three triples, and the visitors had only two turnovers total in the first twenty minutes. They scored at 1.52 PPP in the first half... Fran McCaffery Basketball at its finest, ladies and gents. </p> <p>Michigan's offense found themselves having to keep pace with the Iowa onslaught that their defense helped enable and struggled to do so. The big men were dreadful offensively for Michigan in the first half, as the Wolverines managed to shoot 2/6 on dunks/layups and 7/17 on other twos. As a team, their FG% in the first half sat at 37.5%. Dickinson and Diabate combined to go 2/11 from the floor and posted just six points total. It was a stark comedown from Dickinson's exceptional performance on Tuesday against the Spartans. Eli Brooks' 13 points led Michigan, but the central problem was that the rest of the team couldn't score inside and bricked open threes. Non-Eli Michigan shot under 30% in the first half, all while getting spanked defensively. As you can guess, the halftime margin was ugly: 47-30 Iowa. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Eli had a nice showing on Senior Night [Campredon]</em></p> <p>The Wolverines did win the second half, but it's pretty hard to dig out of a hole that big without a dominant offensive display and/or suffocating defense. Michigan's defense improved and their offense started to connect on a few more shots, but neither were devastating enough to get the win you'd need in those circumstances. Iowa led by 16 with 8:19 to play in the game before Michigan made the only run of sorts that they'd embark on in the second half, going on a 11-2 stretch over about five minutes to get the lead down to 7. Unfortunately, taking five minutes to trim the lead by nine points didn't leave them much time to finish the deal. Even when they were getting stops in that period to hold Iowa off the board, Michigan still wasn't exploding offensively to the point that was necessary. Turnovers dented the offensive flow and the Wolverines simply ran out of time. </p> <p>The other Murray, Kris, led Iowa in points in the second half after going 5/5 from the floor. He was followed closely by Jordan Bohannon, who had a special night from three point range (5/7), including two low-percentage looks that went down in that half. Michigan finally got Dickinson going in the second half, scoring 15 points on a perfect 7/7 from the floor, while Brooks cooled off. Problem was that Diabate remained dreadful, committing a couple fouls in that half and turning the ball over three times. His best collegiate game against the Hawkeyes in Iowa City and one of his worst came tonight against the Hawkeyes in Ann Arbor. Michigan was an excellent 64.3% from the field in the second half, yet committed 10 turnovers and made only four threes in the half, which was the main reason why they couldn't chop down the Iowa lead more quickly. </p> <p class="text-align-center"><em>Hunter got it going in the second half [Campredon]</em></p> <p>In all, the FG% numbers, rebounds, and turnover numbers look similar between the two teams, and the final margin was only 11, but it was a game that didn't feel all that close. Iowa went up 15-6 early on and never looked back. Michigan, despite its improvement in the second half, could never bring it within a couple possessions. The crowd tried to will the Wolverines forward in the late stages of the second half, but it was not to be. Iowa made more threes and were nearly perfect on more free throw attempts, a well-oiled offense that clicked inside and out, and Michigan's defense didn't do enough to stop it early on, while having an off-shooting night at the other end. </p> <p>The Wolverines are now 16-13 on the season and 10-9 in the conference. They head to Ohio State on Sunday afternoon, who bested Michigan in Ann Arbor back in February. A win there would do wonders to shore up Michigan's bubble position heading into Indy, but it will not be easy. The Buckeyes defeated Michigan State tonight, though they have not been playing great as of late. That game is scheduled for 12:30 pm EST and will be televised on FOX. </p> <p><strong>[Click the JUMP for the box score]</strong></p> <div id="read-more"></div></div> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="comment-forbidden"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/login?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">Log in</a> or <a href="https://mgoblog.com/user/register?destination=/content/iowa-82-michigan-71%23comment-form">register</a> to post comments</li></ul> </div> <section class="field field--name-comment field--type-comment field--label-hidden comment-wrapper" id="comments"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="26295" id="comment-244484497" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/art-go-blue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">Art Go Blue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646368777"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484497#comment-244484497">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:38 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:38:51+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Despite/in spite of all of that, I’m optimistic.

Sure, we didn't have our best defensive effort, but even if we did, they'd still have dominated the half. Tip of the hat to Iowa, they came to Ann Arbor and played a great game. Michigan, on the other hand, didn't have it and looked pretty sluggish. We could have won that game had we showed up with our 'A' game, hopefully we can do that against the Buckeyes Sunday. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/21/2009</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 17808</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484499&1=default&2=en&3=" token="o_ooRB8wUC1G8h7LF4lYq2IpUZlYG960M7IrNUP280g"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="3051" id="comment-244484505" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484499#comment-244484499" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I don't believe I've seen…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/victors2000" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">victors2000</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369455"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484505#comment-244484505">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:50:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Yeah, Iowa played incredibly well in that first half.

He has great athleticism but it looks like he is still learning the game. His athleticism sometimes allows him to play decent defense and he occassionally makes a spectacular block but even his defense is inconsistent. And that is the best part of his game. Of course, some team may look at that athleticism, be convinced that he can be a very good NBA player, and decide they can develop him faster than Michigan. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 02/23/2018</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 10355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484521&1=default&2=en&3=" token="eUxHjaNHu_xtJ8_1VVY9_PoXPFTkEKNPHYXKqrXfads"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"><article role="article" data-comment-user-id="203448" id="comment-244484550" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484521#comment-244484521" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I am not any kind of expert…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rah" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">RAH</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646398101"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550">March 4th, 2022 at 7:48 AM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T12:48:21+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I totally agree....you are not an expert. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 03/02/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> -32</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484550&1=default&2=en&3=" token="HXtMlhrCB-S1HvzPk8n8Y_Q_zEPYXFkhxTbHn0fEKUY"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="9805" id="comment-244484649" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484550#comment-244484550" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">I totally agree....you are…</a> by <span lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/blueballsohard" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype>blueballsohard</span></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/schreibee" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">schreibee</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420210"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484649#comment-244484649">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:50+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Not an expert, but still not wrong. </p> <p>Who da thunk it?!

Like, Iowa started the game 3/3 from 3 and UM was 0/5 and UM's looks were, on average, better. This team is wildly inconsistent but they also couldn't catch a break to start. And it's not hard to see them starting a little flat after crushing MSU - this team struggles to keep their energy level even, which makes some sense given the inexperience at a lot of spots.</p> <p>Sucks that Eli had a good game on Senior night but it was for naught. Mousa looked absolutely lost in this game, and I'm not overly optimistic that gets remedied in a couple of days. </p> <p>This is life of a bubble team. I still think that Seton Hall game is going to cost them a bid, bad barring an upset in Columbus this feels like a "make the BTT finals or else" season. I want to be wrong I don't see it.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/22/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 203112</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484502&1=default&2=en&3=" token="-R5os3Mw0a_vMzi1w0M0n0AeZxrmTLHr2vYj2T0ww1c"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="13561" id="comment-244484511" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-trusted_user role-basic_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" class="profile"> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484502#comment-244484502" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">The defense was bad but Iowa…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/bronxblue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">bronxblue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/trueblue2003" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">TrueBlue2003</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646369852"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484511#comment-244484511">March 3rd, 2022 at 11:57 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T04:57:32+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Flip any loss to a win and this team is in.

Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a row. Also, Michigan is very capable of shooting free throws at a high rate but didn't. Despite Iowa being red hot in the 1st half, if Michigan had done a decent job of taking care of the ball and hit their free throws they might have come back to win this game.</p></div> <div

someone would have rotated a second earlier it would have more than likely ended up in stop on D. prime example was the dunk by Kris Morgan, Moussa hesitated to get over to help Hunter and by the time he did it was too late.</p> <p>Devante didn't drive to the basket enough, really no one did. one of the main reason why we won in Iowa was because we got them into foul trouble. But because Iowa came out so hot, we decided to try and match them for shot for shot.</p> <p>and as much as some people want to complain about the ref's, yes they might have missed some calls. but they were letting a lot go on both ends. but it was not the ref's fault that we turned the ball over 10 or 11 times in the second half...

It looked like the Bohannon rain of 3s freaked us out a bit, and we started chasing on the perimeter leaving us vulnerable drives to hoop and other easy inside baskets. I think sometimes you have stay in your base defense and hope that the shooter(s) cool off rather being overly aggressive on the outside.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div

guess Hunter). Most of the players on the team are simply too young, and we’ve seen enough flashes and progress from each of the freshman over the course of the season to envision them becoming high end college players. But they simply aren’t right now - most nights they are below average B1G starting players when you look at it holistically (offense, defense, decisions, knowing where to be on the court, etc).</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2019</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 266</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484605&1=default&2=en&3=" token="jpBP1C7Wf1pvkKZJNdlsbFi8z3yqH1QmLzJiazTaGXw"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="11503" id="comment-244484629" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/maizednblued" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">maizedNblued</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646416244"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484629#comment-244484629">March 4th, 2022 at 12:50 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T17:50:44+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>There was once a time when the fans did not worry about bad officiating, excuses, lack of fan interest, no one at the games, complaining about perceived roster mismanagement, this guy stinks, that guy can't play defense, he turns the ball over too much....why you may ask?

Speaks to experience, to fatigue, to coaching to a lesser extent. Had no answers for either Keegan or Kris Murray (combined 16 of 20 from the field, 5 of 6 from 3) or Bohannon's ability to drain difficult shots and bomb from distance. Glad to be rid of him.</p> <p>Hoping for another End of Season Brandon Johns Resurgence and redemption arc. Must have sucked to only get 7 minutes on senior night, esp the way Moussa was playing.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 01/06/2017</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 9568</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484631&1=default&2=en&3=" token="exU55BIh_kBEmymu4o1MRtmVl8nVeE1DksMsb3tAApc"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <div class="indented"> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="79834" id="comment-244484651" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484651" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/atsdominance" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/atsdominance" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> <p class="visually-hidden">In reply to <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484631#comment-244484631" class="permalink" rel="bookmark" hreflang="en">Iowa obviously started like…</a> by <a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/buddhablue" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/buddhablue" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">BuddhaBlue</a></p> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/atsdominance" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/atsdominance" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">ATS_Dominance</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420635"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484651#comment-244484651">March 4th, 2022 at 2:03 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T19:03:55+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I am pretty sure Bohanon is a freshman.</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/12/2014</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 1355</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484651&1=default&2=en&3=" token="QkCPXNKVmRWieF5hTSiSDVngZHzjHw2CZpSSiCqFWRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="2810" id="comment-244484647" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484647" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/mglobules" class="profile"> <div class="field field--name-user-picture field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/users/mglobules" hreflang="en"> </a> </div> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/mglobules" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/mglobules" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">MGlobules</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646420168"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484647#comment-244484647">March 4th, 2022 at 1:56 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T18:56:08+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Feeling a little bit disconsolated by this one as I live with it this morning, going about the day. I had a hunch Dickinson would not be able to carry them as with MSU, not for a third time in five days. In a way this was a schedule loss--Iowa had another day of rest (though they were traveling). And also the kids just looked like. . . kids taking a whipping, at least in the first half. Especially Moussa. I know he has NBA promise, but watching him last night I just thought, "Wow, what a lot of pressure on this guy, when you know his story. I wonder if he would really just love the opportunity to relax a little, grow for one more year here." </p> <p>These guys can be good next year. </p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 11/17/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 63761</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484647&1=default&2=en&3=" token="8ZIkE-Ibr_70s9GarpNz-zYV86134gxG5cPNpyDblg8"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article role="article" data-comment-user-id="1945" id="comment-244484682" about="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682" typeof="schema:Comment" class="comment js-comment clearfix role-basic_user role-trusted_user"> <footer class="comment__meta"> <article typeof="schema:Person" about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" class="profile"> </article> </footer> <div class="comment__content"> <div data-history-node-id="150033"> <p class="comment__author"><span rel="schema:author"><a title="View user profile." href="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" lang about="https://mgoblog.com/users/rainking" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype class="username">rainking</a></span> <mark class="hidden" data-comment-timestamp="1646429152"></mark></p> <p class="comment__time"> <a href="https://mgoblog.com/comment/244484682#comment-244484682">March 4th, 2022 at 4:25 PM <span property="schema:dateCreated" content="2022-03-04T21:25:52+00:00" class="rdf-meta hidden"></span> </a> <span class="collapse">^</span> </p> <div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>I kept thinking Iowa would just HAVE to cool down at some point…</p></div> <div class="comment__footer"> <div class="comment__user-data"> <p class="joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> 09/08/2008</p> <p class="mgopoints"> <strong>MGoPoints:</strong> 5597</p> </div> <div class="comment__actions"> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=244484682&1=default&2=en&3=" token="zNDznTqzyI0C9fSCBwEmu0Ofhlq2XdOhe_EJFXNztRA"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <div class="field field--name-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/2021-22-iowa-2" hreflang="en">2021-22 Iowa #2</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/hunter-dickinson" hreflang="en">hunter dickinson</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/eli-brooks" hreflang="en">eli brooks</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/moussa-diabate" hreflang="en">moussa diabate</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/jordan-bohannon" hreflang="en">jordan bohannon</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://mgoblog.com/category/tags/keegan-murray" hreflang="en">keegan murray</a></div> </div> </article> </main></body></html>
