The Bobcats benefited from a string of Michigan misses and turnovers during final 4:05 after Wolverines had closed to 63-60. The game was not sealed until a pair of Offutt free throws with 6.8 seconds to play.



Skilled but not overly athletic, Michigan was the perfect foil for the smaller and faster Bobcats.

Not only that, but I noticed two glaring inaccuracies from Elton and "The Starting Blocks" at the PD.

Elton:
Ohio went into its game against Michigan believing it had size advantage in the post. While Michigan often has four guards on the floor, and more often than not plays with a high-post pivot, after 6-7, 190-pound starter Jon Smith at center, backed up by 6-8, 260-pound Reggie Keely, no Bobcats player that gets on the court is bigger than 6-6, 190.


Umm...Ivo?

Starting Blocks:
Clark Kellogg, whose son Alex plays for the Bobcats...


Umm...Nick?

It really is a shame that they don't have access to a media guide.

In some professions mistakes are glaring and have consequences (think brain surgeon or jet pilot) while there are others that are visible mistakes that go on and on and on and.......In this case, the patient died on the operating table and the plane nosedived into the ground.
