Dusty May and the No. 1 Michigan Wolverines were handed just their second loss of the season, as the No. 3 Duke Blue Devils pulled off the upset in Washington D.C. on Saturday night, 68-63.
Here are the best reactions from social media to Saturday night’s marquee non-conference matchup.
Yaxel Lendeborg with 7 of Michigan’s first 11 points at the first media timeout. When all else fails, #FeedYax
Aday Mara went out with two fouls early, with both being on Cameron Boozer (the second one was HIGHLY questionable)
Mara went back out in the first half…and picked up a quick third foul. That one is completely his fault
Morez Johnson Jr. SLAMS over Boozer
Elliot Cadeau left the first half due to injury, but L.J. Cason stepped up in a big spot
Michigan down at halftime, 35-33, but it could be WAY worse
JUST IN: Mara is allowed to play basketball!
We didn’t miss Michigan playing on the ESPN family of networks
The result of that possible hook and hold…
Duke has been bullies on the boards. This stat comes at the under-8 timeout
Following a 7-0 run, capped by a Yax 3-pointer, Michigan is back within one point, 57-56. Positive vibes are BACK!
The vibes are quickly killed by a Mara goaltending call that was…another questionable call
Michigan could have had a shot to tie the game, but another offensive rebound by Duke ruined those chances
Hopefully March (and April) are different
