Michigan is probably still undervalued after their horrific start. After getting beat by two instate MAC teams, the Wolverines have shown considerable improvement. I think the value window is still open here. Wisky is solid but I don't like them enough to lay pts on the road here.

caught this quote in a michigan newspaper,

not sure if it means anything for you...good luck with the pick...

Their success this conference season, beginning with Wisconsin tonight, hinges on keeping players healthy, dealing with foul trouble and handling matchup problems that result from a lack of depth.

Health has already become a concern with the knee injury to junior Bernard Robinson that could force him to miss up to two weeks. Robinson practiced Monday, but remained unsure as to whether he would be able to play tonight.

"Bernard has been a catch-all for us," Amaker said. "He has been very versatile and without his skills we suffered. We are looking at playing five freshmen out of the nine guys we play. I think in terms of (freshman Daniel Horton), Bernard has been an asset to all of our players, and Daniel has been one of the biggest beneficiaries."

Meanwhile, a lack of depth has made health an even more important factor.

"I think (staying healthy) is vital," Amaker said. "We are not very deep. At the beginning of the year we thought that was an asset, but it never materialized. With one or two injuries, it can really decimate your ball club. That is out of our control."

Perimeter defense suffered against IUPUI because of no depth, and both Horton and freshman Lester Abram need to step up if they want to control Wisconsin's guard tandem of Devin Harris and Kirk Penney.
