6C MITCH ALBOM; STEVE KORNACKI ROAD TO MINNEAPOLIS; PREDICTIONS Copyright (c) 1992, Detroit Free Press Mitch Albom For one night, these Michigan kids can do anything. And tonight is just one night, isn't it? Michigan 90, Oklahoma State 84. Steve Kornacki Michigan could beat or lose to anyone. But I have a hunch the fun is over for this season. Oklahoma State 77, Michigan 72. Greg Stoda Let's stop with the youth vs. experience stuff. There will almost certainly be times when Michigan is playing five freshmen against five seniors for Oklahoma State. So what? So nothing. The matchups favor the Wolverines . . . 85-81. Perry A. Farrell The Wolverines have more talent than the Cowboys, but the Big Eight team plays better defense. This game will be won in the paint. Michigan will prevail because of its superior depth, especially on the inside. Michigan 87, Oklahoma State 80. FORECAST; NCAA; BASKETBALL; WIN; DFREEPRESS; NAMELIST
