We're gonna clock Michigan!
A week ago, I was thinking that this Michigan team could be a NC contender. After watching the EMU game, I realize that is definitely not the case. Is this a bad team? Absolutely not. Michigan still has one of the better players in the nation in Caris LeVert and one of the better coaches in John Beilein.
While I really don't see SMU "clocking" Michigan, I do think the game will be close. Michigan lacks depth and will have serious issues with Moreira and MK (assuming he is eligible). Our bigs have looked relatively lost on both ends thus far. Donnall and Chatman start, but you'll see a lot of Doyle and Bielfeldt. No one in that group is taller than 6'9". Doyle is probably the biggest offensive threat of the bunch, though all of his scoring is done around the rim. He really didn't get many looks against NJIT and EMU, but I think you'll see him more involved in the offense by the SMU game.
Honestly, I really don't see Michigan dropping four straight games--especially considering three of those loses would be at home. We'll be coming off of what is surely going to be a loss at Arizona, though we'll have the following week to rest up and regroup for the SMU game.
