It's Illinois vs Michigan from Ann Arbor
It is a warm, 32 degrees, snowy day in Ann Arbor Michigan. They have had about eight inches of snow in the past few days. The team is staying at the Marriott hotel.
For people who like to be on the Internet all the time this is a good trip. Everywhere I have been has had free wifi including this bus. The only thing not to have wifi was our flight up here.
There is a rumor at the hotel that this 1914 Ford is Loren Tate's First car. We will get his reply later.
Brain and Loren are going to take the car for a spin around Ann Arbor.
The Illini are at practice this morning.
Brian, Jerry and Loren have a good place to work here. We are 8 rows up in the stands and just behind the TV broadcast position.
Just next door The Big House is going up. When The Illini open it this fall it will have 85 suites and another Illini Victory.

Mike Tisdale and Tyler Griffey are first on the court and The Illini will be in ORANGE Michigan will be in maze and blue.

The Michigan Band and how many empty seats would you like tonight?
Game ON. Let's Go Illini
And That's a Winner
51-44 Illlini
Prettiest Ugly Win the coach has ever seen.
A winning Big Ten Season
I think the Krush should make Michigan an annual trip, until the Wolverines pack their own arena. And don't even worry about covering up the orange. Looks like the band could have gone also to fill up even more seats. Call it a warm-up for post-season road trips. Perhaps all the Meeechigan faithful were too busy down-playing the violations against the football team. They should have learned by now that you don't mess with the NCAA. Yes, they're minor compared to what others have done, but they've stepped into that area called "Lack of Institutional Control."
