MZ Johnson gets the start tonight. He's a new Wolverine. There's another lob.
Conor onion with you in in Arbor for part two of our double header. And a dime mark. Thurman curls around Mara.
[cheering] That's three in quick time. But Mara back certainly just swayed shots. Gale down low.
Oh, Mara. Goodness. Couple of mistakes at one end, you pay mightily at the other.
Coming down to 90 seconds to go in a tie game. Michigan has stormed back in the lane. Mason D.
Back screen by Gale. Didn't get anything out of it. Trouble there.
Still plenty of time to shoot. They get it down. Lamara, he's still go offensively and does so there.
That comes into today three and0. But Michigan starting to put their foot on the gas pedal wanting to hit the finish line. McKenni nice cut.
Couldn't finish. Mara does. Almost getting the opportunity to go in and out.
Ma fighting and it ends up in the hands of Cheddar. He misses and Ma is there for another offensive board. I'm complaining.
[laughter] Here's Johnson. How about that pass? He's given away about a half a foot.
Censington Yovich as Mara gets the offensive board on the playback with confidence. Mara on a rim run. Here's Gadd [cheering] and a poster.
Thought about a three instead. Let him go with the hook. Mara wringles his way through from Mills.
Andre Mills. Motor. Count it and a foul.
[cheering] Little show and go. Kenny giving it up. Oh, Mara.
It's really tough to stop when he gets it down there. DJ Carson's as good as it gets in the college game. Mara, that's like taking [cheering] Mara.
Mara quickly gets it. It's that way long. Lender tracks it down.
He's got Barnett. Got Mara. [cheering] 12 points, nine rebounds.
Strong take inside. Mara in the lane, rolls it home. There's another example though of of McD giving so much space.
Another three-point miss by Archie inside. Mara lays it home. Fred Fredson Cole.
He'll go ahead to Sheriff on it. Look at the hustle by Mara from the jump by the most physical front court in the Big 10. That three short.
This is where the Wolverines. You look at the rookies for next year. This freshman class really going skying high on the Lu.
That's a scary scary team as well. LJ Kase is now you just have to think are do we believe we can. Oh, nasty work from Mara.
Some of his best basketball of his career. Lakes dribble to either hook left or right. Yowskis will defend.
Another shot right inside of the game. Quick pass inside to Mara who's almost impossible to stop from that spot. They don't go in cuz Michigan's one of the better rebounding teams in the country.
Sets up transition like that like 12 13 ft. You really got to have good touch to make that shot consistently. Battling with Mara and Mara squeezes it in.
running with him in transition as Lenderorg misses. But in talking to Dusty May at shoot around today as Mar gets that turnaround to go Mar you have a ball handler that can shoot as well as handle and a guy that can roll or pop. It's indefensible.
Was that a pass? Die Mara with 16 points and two highf flying ones there to stretch the lead back out to 10. Mara.
Oh, both hands on the rim. Landor Dipsy doing. Mara is there on the clean out.
Quite good at being able to generate those fouls with their size inside. Here's a touch for Mara who has just a bit of an advantage on Enright in the size department. and Adara gets Michigan started.
He'd really improved as a perimeter jump shooter. It's been a little bit of regression. It'll be interesting to kind of track Mara with the left hand.
He's very good at it. Goes on the baseline. Stripped out of his hands by Mara.
Baseline inside and rejected by Mara. Tilly leads in. Jump hook rejected by Mara.
Cuffs has to hurry. Cubs blocked by Fernette pops out. Shows it down the leg.

And look at him run pin to pin. Two years ago, he couldn't do that. Oh, Coler locking up.
Mara with position. Got to dig a little on and help out. How about that jump hook off the glass?
Got the three guard look here with Gail on the floor. [cheering] Mara again at point blank range and another easy layup. It's unbelievable.
Nice entry pass. Got to get Mara involved a little bit in that low post area. There you go.

Another put back the stretch. 73 610 and 69 on the front line for Michigan. Nice pocket.
Including a couple from deep. That's the perfect spot for Look at that against that two-3 zone. Yeah, he gave that one up instead of just knocking it down.
Use that snake dribble. Good deed by Cadell. Look at him help too.
Tilly Mara gets him against this powerhouse. This is too easy. Mara double team that skilled ball movement.
Here comes Kadau top. Mora. Good timing, right?
Good pursuit. Currently ninth place in what many of the experts predict is going to be a 10 bid big 10. Look at Mara camping out.
Unstoppable. 19-point game. This Michigan team, number two in the country, by Arizona.
Look at Mora. Thon missed it. Good shot.
That's the shot you got to take and make. And look who's running the floor. Mora.
Unreal. Wow. One of the many things this team does well is rebound.
Eighth in the country in rebound margin in the flush for Adai Mara. trying to get it in there at the last second. Couldn't quite do it.
It's also that maybe they like white Jason to Mara. Pass to Bill had a clean look on the head and shoulder fake. Bette leaves it for Mara and the easy deuce.
He's been out of the game so long. You know, you forget quickly. I hope he knows.
Look at this up top. Big to big be factor. UCLA has been held to just 16.

The UCLA transfer getting better and better. A gifted passer and somehow he finished that from Kado Sar with Amara on him drives tried to dunk it and a foul on Cameron Mooer. Lindore.
Seven to shoot. Trying to get aggressive. Finds Mara.
Fades away for two. I love it. Good field.
Makes threes. He's a different guy on the board. Riding into the lane and Mara above everybody.
Body as well. This is where he is good. Has he said nice cutakovic tonight by Mara right at the rim.
He sent it to pass. Scale up ahead. Stuffs it home.
They take advantage. The got hemmed in by Evasich beautifully and Linder board fills the lane and a foul and finding the dive guy. How about this excellent look gets free and misses Mar one handing for the rebound.
Oh, earlier in the game I mentioned the Duke game. [cheering] Landorg has a three inside to Mara. Showing off his skills here in trouble on the baseline.
Cheddar short on the three. Mara Lindaborg spinning. Mara one to shoot off the glass.
They didn't have great balance. Nice cut. Mara behind the back.
Gale finishes. We got a Michigan highlight. Mara.
Mara. Spinning right hand. Mara.
I should say Mara. Sometimes looks like he's the tallest guy on the playground. Get inside.
And there he is finishing the switch on this. McKenna staying home on Moley. Moy driving.
Oh, rejected by Mara. Moy on Cadell. Cadell spins.
Dump it off to Mara. is there to clean it up. Mara, bounce yourself in.
He's got hooks with either hands. Lakes passes. Drps that baby hook.
Frenetic. No, just side to side. A little more rhythm.
Mara either handed it with a left. Gets it back. Floats it up.
Good. And the harm. I don't understand why you can't block his shot.
The reach is utterly incred. again the pick and pop. Rockwell stop and go.
It's blocked by Mara. Look at this up ahead. Nice little edited timeout.
Little back screen. Get him to the box. Mara ball fake.
He finds people again. Lendorg rocks the rim and it's Mara with a perfect setup. Lendore the spin dish.
Mara. They give that to him and he nails it. Three-point lead for Michigan.
Meyer getting physical with Kado. Screen from Mara. Slop it up.
Slam it down. Mara the big man. Jacobson can overpower.
[cheering] Cado accelerates play. Those are tomorrow. That is perfectly executed.
Got what they want here. Bounce and help. Dig a little bit.
Mara comfortable with either hand. Works inside and he banks it home again. The switch.
And now Smith. Is he feeling it? Off the rim.
He was going to take M for dinner I think. Kadau goes high. Caught by Mara and he will flush it down.
Kadau screen. Mara lob it up. Put it down.
A special delivery. Lend aboard. Got to get a Cadau when it gets late.
Now Mara Cheddar was asking for it. 10 to shoot. Mara the spin off.
That's really nice. He does a nice job feeling you. The weight distribution.
Cox bounce it. Kaufman ran. It's blocked by Mara team.
One of the favorites who could eventually cut down the net come April and having Oh goodness. Mara, it's a rebound for Taylor who's met by Mara. Taylor had it blocked.
Mara a closeout expert. And I'm sure these young men going into the Michigan jerseys were listening intently. What a hook pass by Mara.
Just a beline for Rody Gale. Travel Bryson has a quick five. Yeah, we'll see Robbie Avula and St.
Louis coming up in game number four of our night. Mara with some ballet down low. You know, in the tournament team can get hot.
So if you can shut the valves off early, it's better for you than having a sevenfooter inside. A D Mara wipes it away. Gale on the flip trip for Michigan.
That was a nifty move. Got the kick out. It's a Kazo triple that draws front iron and Mara just stuffs it right back in.
Easy does it at eye level. Why does that matter so much? Because against this team, you lower yourself to sleep cuz things come too easy.
When you press, it takes effort and energy. Now the focus and concentration attention to detail from Niagara Falls. If you missed it earlier, Rody Gale Jr.
from Lewon Porter High School. That at the rim is not going to go down and it's out of bounds to Michigan. Whole lot of vision when Adara is [music] in the way.
That get this down to a 13-point lead. Just playing with three fouls. Such a big piece of this team.
19 points for Cedric Taylor. Mara baseline spin step through and it was a gentle dunk. Kenny spins baseline turns it back.
Lenderborg wants it. Lendorg driving Gillis. He'll lob it.
Oh, that's easy. When you see the skyscraper up there able to get by Smaller Gillis throw it up and no matter what without telling him got him into this basketball camp to really invigorate his love for the game. You don't have to learn that in a camp.
Mara is just a wizard. Michigan 30 of 44 from the floor when you're shooting from an inch away. Down to 6 minutes to play in this game as Mara has to go collect it.
Up by 24 for the Wolverines. He arches his back spinning to the rim. Oh man, that's just a disaster waiting to happen.
Gillis with five. Lets it rip. That's an air ball.
Follow. No rebound. Mara.
Oh, the hit ahead is a touchdown. Josh would be proud. I knew you.
I knew you were going there. Bre, but here you go. West unel.
Both of these teams put 100 on the board, Jim, on Thursday. St. Louis 102 points against Georgia.
Michigan 101 on the board as AB Howard. There's Mara. Flatten out the defense and get that shot.
Oh, Mara the block. [cheering] Admar this is what he does best. He pursues the ball handler gets the block then the Borg and also Mara inside here.
He's got two fouls. Mara goes to work. Turn around.
Choke is true. beat Patrick Euing down there but he is so effective when he's aggressive is open again for three unable to connect and the baseball pass the athletic big man let's not bury the lead here look at this pass the pass first led Mar right to the basket you can be a versatile big that can spread the floor initiate the offense and shoot threes going into the trees Mara with another block. That was inevitable.
Well, that's what Mara does. Well, he had to adjust his role on being on the perimeter, catching, blowing by his initial defender, and he's done an excellent job within this system. Speaking of which, nice move.
Come on, man. [cheering] You You didn't see that a few years ago from Mar. It's not just the size of Michigan that overwhelms.
It is their speed. They are unlike any team in college basketball. That little turnaround jumper's nice from a Daim Mara.
They saw the throttle put on him in the first half with the two fouls. This feels like Robbie Avula second half. Now Mara with a rim run because this St.
Louis team can score in bunches. We've seen that going up top and it's Mara who sets up MZ Johnson with Sarah Kusto. Um I want to thank Jason.
Thanks Jimmy by the way. I appreciate that. It was a thrill watching you guys.
And Charerelle already has two threes that ties his career high. Mara has the touch. He's only their best shooter by percentage.
Phon makes the most. Oh, they fell asleep there. Mara to Johnson.
You got to come off that screen ready to shoot cuz he's not even coming [music] up on you. Gdau tied up inside and Laura cleans it up. Before that, they were one for seven, but that's what they do.
You can never fall asleep on them from the three-point line. Never. Rel bounces it in.
Good feed and with the block like right there. Charel for three and Lindore goes up to get the rebound again. The shot clock was winding down.
Kadau Lor on the flush. Michigan's got to execute here in the half court. Glendaborg.
No. the follow. Both these teams amongst the national leaders in scoring in the paint and in not allowing people to score in the paint.
Who's going to win out in this game? Mara with the jam. There's a pain point for him.
Two of them in fact. So we talked about it the other day. This is a better game for Mara.
They are not only elite offensively, they're elite defensively too. Number two in the nation defensive field goal percentage. Mara working around Estrella.
What a move by the big guy. So, he's a guy to keep an eye on here in the second half for Tennessee. Yeah, like you said, Opara, Opara, and Carrie were in foul.
Had some foul issues. That's a great point, Evan. And that's really what happened.
Their transition defense was not good. How about this Mora the three, his third of the year with a triple from the outside. You know, Michigan came out looking to push the tempo because Tennessee didn't want to and they have controlled it all the way.
Oh, with the block or Pete, come on real quick. None of the above. I think it was rhetorical.
Rody Gale Jr. Inside Mara on the rack attack. The breath of his shoulder is incredible.
The Michigan lead is 11. Tyson running to the rim. Mara fakes it in and the horn.
They have 10 made field goals and eight turnovers Arizona in this first half. Cadell Mara finishes at the rim. He was had a crowd of Michigan defenders there.
Really locks his pivot. Nice cut by a race there by Mara. Pete couldn't get a clean shot.
Yeah, we're watching him. He's moving rather gingerly. Lob it up.
Slap down. Special delivery. Kadau to Mara with the hammer.
Mara drives. No resistance. And nobody home up front.
Small Cado. Flip it. Oh, he slams it down.
So, he'll get credit for the rebound and the dunk. Cado won't get the assist. Obviously learned a great deal from F bedside manner.
How to handle a team, how to build a program. Back door Ko. He flushes it down.
Keep playing Delos. That was big. And it almost went down.
Offensive rebound. Awaka denied by Mara. Boy, that was a sandwich isolation.
Mara gets it to go. Plus the foul against a guy that's as strong as most. Maybe some Swiss cheese if he makes another move.
drops that greed. Nice. Rejected by Mara.
Do not go in there. Lifting Mara. Good hand off the deflection.
Michigan is running. Kale. He's going to float it up.
Mara. [screaming] Big finish for the Spaniard. Goodness gracious.
Graceful. Spritzing those babies out. But all about the D and the deflection.
