Suspensions force State frosh to give up redshirt: Spartans' fight for title rests with new goalie
Western Michigan coach Bill Wilkinson must have been salivating at the thought - a Michigan State goal without a goaltender between the pipes.
While this may seem to be a far-fetched scenario, it wasn't as unrealistic as one might imagine.
Sweet Lou's sweeter: 3-point parade rewards Bullock with honor
They say one is the loneliest number, but Michigan guard Louis Bullock would probably disagree.
Bullock was named Big Ten Player of the Week after averaging 22.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in wins over Penn State and Michigan State. It is the second time this season that Bullock was named Player of the Week, becoming the first player since Gray Grant in 1988 to earn the honor twice in one season.
Sloan works overtime
For some guys, hockey is life.
For other guys, hockey is a part of life.
Blake Sloan plays hockey for Michigan. But most people know that.

'M' cagers hot and cold: After big victory, Michigan couldn't find the hoop
After dominating the Hawkeyes in Iowa City, the Michigan women's basketball team might have expected a good game at Indiana.
Instead, Michigan was seeing red.
The Hoosiers held Michigan to 29.2 percent shooting from the field, including a paltry nine for 42 in the second half in Michigan's 73-56 loss. It marked the worst shooting performance from the field for the Wolverines this season, who defeated Iowa the week before by shooting a blistering 60.4 percent.
Huskies stay No. 1 in women's basketball
The Connecticut women insist that going undefeated isn't their goal. Maybe that's why they still are.
Connecticut, the only unbeaten NCAA Division I team, remained the overwhelming choice for No. 1 Monday in The Associated Press women's basketball poll - the Huskies' seventh straight week on top.
Fire Carr; the answer lies in the stars
A long time ago, in a football stadium not too far away, the Michigan Wolverines staked claim to an empire like none other the universe had ever seen.
In the biggest stadium in the galaxy, they had supreme power. Big Ten titles. Rose Bowls. Record numbers of victories.
Now the peace has been shattered. The Force is weak. The offense can attack no longer. And so Lloyd Carr has to go - now.
