The officiating is also as expected.
Michigan and Michigan State knotted at 55 at the under-8 media timeout in the most anticipated game of the weekend. The environment at Breslin is as expected. Two national title contenders. Game's on Fox. Get there if you're not already.

WILLTON THE STILTON! HA HA!
"TSCHETTER CHEESE! HA HA!"
Fairly certain I just heard Gus Johnson call Michigan's Will Tschetter "Cheese" in a tone that implies everyone calls him that every day.

This Michigan-Michigan State basketball is scrappy as hell and just rife with pure hate.

Don’t get too excited, folks, they’re playing the New York Yankees in the first round of the Nobel Peace Prize playoffs.
As longtime observers of struggles to establish peace and justice in the US and around the world, The Nation is honored to nominate the city of Minneapolis and its people for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.
“The Nation” Nominates Minneapolis for the Nobel Peace Prize
With their resistance to violent authoritarianism, the people of Minneapolis have renewed the spirit of Dr. King’s call for “the positive affirmation of peace.”

Benfica, seemingly unaware they needed a goal to steal the last spot in the Champions League playoff, gets a goal from their goalkeeper in the seventh minute of five minutes of added time against a nine-man Real Madrid.
And the manager of Benfica is, of course, football's greatest troll.

They’d better not have playoffs, though.
Hahaha can you imagine how insufferable we’d be if the People of Minnesota won the Nobel peace prize
Some thoughts:
1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1.
2. History professors are qualified nominators.
3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence.
4. He would be so mad.

It is currently 3 degrees in Duluth right now.
Still not sure if this is the same planet.
