MICHIGAN v OKLAHOMA
I didn't expect MICHIGAN to even be in this tournament. But, they survived CLEMSON to make it to the 2nd round, now they have the task at hand of OKLAHOMA.
Much like MARYLAND, this MICHIGAN team doesn't have enough firepower... or power, period! Who on this MICHIGAN team will guard the 6-10, 250lb, BLAKE GRIFFIN? There has been no player resembling Blake Griffin anywhere on Michigan's schedule.
6-8 junior DeShawn Sims (6.9 rebounds 15.7 PPG) will be MICHIGAN'S man to try and slow down GRIFFIN. If SIMS hacks GRIFFIN trying to stop and gets into foul trouble, SIM'S backup is 6-10 Zack Gibson, who is NO match for GRIFFIN.
I'm not worried about GRIFFIN getting in foul trouble, particuarly in the 1H.
OKLAHOMA shot 32 free throws, MORGAN ST only shot 8 last OKLAHOMA victory. I see this trend returning for MICH/OU...
MICHIGAN's ONLY chance is the three ball...MICHIGAN attempted 150 more 3-pointers than any other Big Ten school this season, and went 10-of-26 against CLEMSON in round 1.
It wouldn't be fair if I didn't mention, MICHIGAN has beaten DUKE this year
....
Big deal.
MICHIGAN is finished
OKLAHOMA -4 1H
