Michigan’s home game against Michigan State scheduled for this afternoon has been postponed due to COVID-19 protocols within the Michigan program.
The University of Michigan announced today (Saturday, Jan. 8) that the Wolverines men’s basketball game against Michigan State, scheduled for Saturday afternoon, has been postponed due to internal COVID-19 protocols within the Michigan program.
On Friday night following medical testing, Michigan fell below the Big Ten Conference roster minimum, with fewer than seven scholarship players available.
The programs will coordinate with the Big Ten Conference office to reschedule the game.
The U-M Ticket Office will provide further information to ticket purchasers as soon as possible. Fans with questions may contact the ticket office via email at mtickets@umich.edu.
Michigan’s next game is scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 11, against Purdue. That game is set for a 9 p.m. tip-off on ESPN2.

Seems unlikely that things will be much better in 3 days for Purdue.

Based on last years inability to get multiple games rescheduled, this feels pretty consequential come March if we miss out on opportunities against MSU, Purdue, or Illinois and are on the bubble.

Exactly. But the hot takers aren’t interested in actually thinking about it.

The Reddit threads are absolutely insane. I really think that if the roles were reversed for this game most of us would just be like “that sucks” and move on. Maybe I’m naive.

Reddit Comments have slowly declined to the level of YouTube video comments over the years, best to just stay out of them.
