STF's South Regional Preview
Now that we are down to just sixteen teams, STF will profile each Regional lineup to see how we got here, what the Sweet 16 really means to each participating school, and who has the best chance to advance to San Antonio. The final here, the South Region....
Does Anybody Buy What Memphis Is Selling Anymore?
A "bold" proclamation: If Memphis doesn't at least make the Final Four this year, no matter what their record is next year, they're not getting a No. 1 seed. The team has looked downright wobbly so far and just about blew it yesterday. Though at least Derrick Rose was able to keep playing past the f...
A Look At The First Three NCAA Tourney Games
Storming The Floor wraps up the first three games, the ones we were stupidly live blogging even though you couldn't see any of it....
NCAA Pants Party: Michigan State Vs. Temple
Michigan State Spartans (25-8) vs. Temple Owls (21-12) When: Thursday, 12:20 p.m. Where: Denver...
Michigan State Spartans
1. Foolish Consistency is the Hobgoblin of Conference Champions. On February 16 , Michigan State went to Indiana to face lame duck coach Kelvin Sampson, and, despite leading by double digits early in the first half, they lost the game by 19. Twelve days later, they scored a whopping 42 points in a l...
Kevin Borseth Is Quite Passionate About Offensive Rebounding
You may not care about women’s basketball, but don’t say that around Michigan coach Kevin Borseth. He’s, um, into the game. And as you may have picked up from this clip, he thinks that offensive rebounding is rather important. Not sure if he’s ranting at his players or at the officiating here, but e...
West Virginians Should Get Out Of The Conspiracy Theory Business
There's been a wave of sympathy for Michigan in the past year, and I for one hoped they were going to find a good solid coach from the lower ranks to bring up, like Ohio State did with Jim Tressel. That didn't happen, and my sympathy swung to West Virginia for losing their fabled coach Rich Rodrigue...
Rich Rodriguez Blogdome
What they're saying around the Interwebs about Michigan's new football coach, Rich Rodriguez, who was introduced by the Wolverines this morning ......
Michigan Bids Adieu To Lloyd Carr
It's official: Several Michigan players went to visit Lloyd Carr in his cage on Sunday and it turns out that the only reason he had been standing up at all is that he had been nailed there. Yes, Carr is an ex-parrot. (And Brian Cook had it first, by the way, despite what "ESPN has learned.") Say wha...
The Buckeyes And Wolverines Are Still Playing This Weekend
This year's Ohio State-Michigan game, thanks to Illinois' win last week (woo!) and the lack of a legendary coach dying right beforehand, doesn't quite have the inherent drama of last year's. But it's still freaking Ohio State-Michigan....
Michigan State Is Quite Fired Up About Michigan
Sticking with the Big Ten theme this morning, we'd like to note that new Michigan State football coach Mark Dantonio seems as unhinged as the infamous John L. Smith....
Big Ten Network Airs Another Mind-Dissolving Upset (So Nobody Saw It)
Well it's about damn time a Big Ten favorite loses their first game of the season to a championship-caliber team from a smaller division. Grand Valley State, who made it to last year's Division II Elite Eight round (only to lose on a buzzer-beater), took an exhibition game way too seriously and won ...
A Long Night In Champaign
We very much enjoyed our trip to Champaign on Saturday, even if we watched our Illini lose, once again, to those Michigan Wolverines. A note to Michigan fans: As if you didn't already know, your fans travel very well....
Nobody Knows Crushing Losses Like A Boiler
Before Purdue's shellacking at the hands of Michigan last week, three Boilermakers team managers decided to run onto the field and recreate the famous blocked field goal at the end of the Appalachian State game....
