**** Official Michigan vs Kansas Sweet Sixteen Game Thread ****

I just finished reading all this.


I guess I'm different. This one is in an entirely different universe than the early losses. Michigan was a good team. It's not like we went out and laid an egg ala VCU/Killer Bs/whatever. Yeah, there were some shitty Johnson plays, but Michigan came to play and got it done.

At this point, I'm only furious-throw TV out the window mad if we bomb in the first two rounds or we somehow miraculously get a FGCU in the S16. It sucks ass to lose in the tourney but even as bad as this one was, it wasn't comparable to the early losses.

Yeah, I was only upset about it for probably 20 minutes and then realized that we'd still won 30 games, a 9th straight conference title, and lost to a 4 seed in a year where there were probably 15 teams that had a legit shot to win it all.

It could be a whole hell of a lot worse. Do I wish EJ wouldn't have put on the bad EJ display? Sure. But I'm not going to get upset when we were up three and Burke throws one in from Ann Arbor. That kind of shit happens every now and then. He makes that shot 5% of the time probably, but that's part of what makes the tournament and college ball so awesome.
