Michigan basketball's close win reminds Beilein of past upset bids

Michigan basketball coach John Beilein was bored Friday night.

So he got on Twitter and began reading some tweets.

He found one from the popular U-M blog, @UMHoops.

"Savannah State is in everyone's timeline for giving up 100 pts routinely this year," the tweet read. "They are leaving D1 after this season, but let us never forget that U-M needed a 2nd half comeback, Zack Novak missed dunk at the buzzer, and OT buzzer beater by DeShawn Sims to win in 2008."

Beilein was startled.

"It sent me into a shock of what could happen today," he recounted late Saturday afternoon.
