Michigan at home against Nebraska on Wednesday. Only question is will Michigan drop a century on them?

Then it's off to Columbus where Michigan hasn't won for, what, 10 years? Trey Burke might be up for that one.

Notre Dame moved the ball well against Cincinnati.

Michigan/Duke fan here.

Burke will do work against the Bucknuts. He destroyed them last year.

Duke's got NCSU this weekend. Big matchup in the ACC.

I'm hoping Purdue can pull off another upset tonight. I doubt the Buckeyes will be sleeping considering their loss to Illinois last week and Purdue's upset over Illinois.

It will be really big for Purdue to pull this off but then playing at home in Mackey and being on national tv. They should be hyped up for this one tonight.

Saturday is two days shy of indeed the 10th anniversary of Michigan's last win in Columbus.

Well they gave themselves a big deficit in the first half but nearly overcame it in the second half, bringing the game within 6 in the last few minutes.

Even though the record is worse I like watching this year's Purdue more than last year. Last year I felt like Purdue was just lest talented than everyone they played, but I don't feel that way this year. I see Ronnie Johnson making an amazing assist on one possession and turning it over on the next. AJ Hammons consistently gets inside, but sometimes his shots just barely roll off the rim. Next year Johnson will turn it over less and Hammons will have better touch, and this will be a very good team. Dakich was basically salivating over the potential of Purdue's freshmen all game long.

Haha, understandable. I was born in Michigan, but when my family moved to NC when I was young, I took a liking to the Devils. They're always on TV, and made them a lot easier to follow here.
