2024-2025 Fighting Pearls

[Snakebite]

I was very proud of that win over Creighton.  They had some guys that came to play, but we were too good for them to overcome.

Speaking of the turds, it's amazing how easy their schedule has lined up thus far in the postseason.  I wonder how they would have fared against an opponent like Creighton.

Auburn faces off against Michigan on Friday.  Tall order for the Tigers, literally.

Michigan is led by 7'1" 250 Vladislav Goldin, who averages 17/7.  He's backed up by former Yale Center, Danny Wolf, who is 7' 250 and averages 13/10.

There is one other player in double figures...one Tre Donaldson, who averages just over 11 per game.

The Wolverines sit at 27-9. They barely scraped by UC San Diego, 68-65.  Then, benefitted from a Texas A&M meltdown to to make it to the Sweet 16.  Had a couple of early losses to Wake Forest and Arkansas, then led the Big 10 for a good bit of the season before running into Michigan State a couple of times, who punked them on both occasions.

They just need to go ahead and bite the pillow, because we are going in dry.

I know they are talented.  I know they are physical.  However, this is a game we SHOULD win.

Elite, bitches.

Every game I have a new fave player and tahaad takes that spot tonight.

Buckle up, big one against Izzo Sunday.

If this team can play 90% of their best for the next three games, they can beat anyone.

Just once I’d love to have an AU team this good reach the heights without injuries.
Hopefully JB can heal up and come back as strong as the last two games.

We are back in the final 4 baby!

I can handicap this...
We should hyperextend Condon's non-shooting elbow and make Clayton Jr. wear an eyepatch.
Pickem!
