ARE WE REALLY GOOD AT BASKETBALL???

Or has Andy Katz just lost it?

According to his most-recent 2009-10 Top 25, Michigan is #9 in the country.

#9!!!!

Our first reaction was:

- The John Beilein media hype machine has spun out of control

- We are getting way, way too much credit for beating a Clemson team that collapsed at the end of the year

And yet, when you look at the teams around us, it isn't that far fetched - which says more about the state of college basketball than how good Michigan will be next year. Though we will say that Ohio State and Illinois should both be ranked ahead of us since they went a combined 4-1 against us.

Think these seats are still available in Lucas Oil Stadium???
