Yes, there was a lot of reasons why. Louisville's defense and talent were big reasons, but so were the tired legs of the Wolverines. The team looked like they have been playing a lot of basketball and taking a bunch of flights.
Teske did all he could with 18 points but was the only Wolverine in double figures. The hot shooting Livers only scored 3 points and went 1-9 from the field. Brooks wasn't much better and was 0-6 from the field only scoring 2 points from the line.
It happens and last night it happend to be against the #1 team in the nation in their own barn. Mark it up to experience and move on. The rest doesn't get any better as the Wolverines have a Big Ten game against Iowa on Friday at Crisler. The week after they travel to Illinois and host Oregon.
After that the schedule lets up with Presbyterian and UMass Lowell to finish up the year.
#1 need for the team is to get Franz Wagner comfortable, he isn't part of this offense at all right now. His defense and rebounding is improving game by game.
- With Alabama dropping out of the top 10, some now are prediciting a Michgian - Alabama match-up in the Citrus Bowl.
- Michigan only dropped one spot in the CFP rankings to #14
- MSU also got beat by Duke last night in East Lansing
