Having seen Michigan play a couple of times recently, I'd have to say that March Madness is going to be full of upsets this year if that is a top 5 team. There seems to be a lot of balance throughout the land this year.

Things are looking up for OSU. IMO if that game is at the Schott or a neutral site OSU wins. UM took advantage of the home court advantage and Hardaway Jr. going 6-6 from three in the 2nd half. That doesn't happen often, much less when the 3's are contested.
The most impressive thing from last night had to be Williams and Ross on offense. Ross looked like a completely different player last night than he has through the season. He played passable D and was a beast on the offensive boards. If he plays like that OSU has to be a Final 4 contender.
