Summary
In this episode, we break down how the Michigan basketball looked in the opening weekend of the 2021 NCAA Tournament, along with a look-ahead to the Sweet Sixteen.
We begin by looking at the Wolverines’ wins over Texas Southern and Louisiana State. We discuss Eli Brooks, Chaundee Brown Jr., Michigan’s perseverance, strategic decisions and other components that impressed us. We then discussed the up-and-down play of Hunter Dickinson, Mike Smith, Franz Wagner, some tight officiating and other concerning elements from Michigan’s NCAA Tournament run without Isaiah Livers.
In the second half of the episode, we go big-picture and look ahead to the Sweet Sixteen. We first talk about the significance of Michigan making six Sweet Sixteen appearances in eight years and four in a row, along with the Wolverines leading the nation with 20 NCAA Tournament wins in the last eight postseasons. We next discuss what Michigan can realistically improve between now and the Sweet Sixteen, and offer an early preview of the Wolverines’ matchup against 4-seed Florida State.
