Penn State men’s basketball bounced back in a big way Sunday afternoon at the Bryce Jordan Center with an 83-61 win over Michigan.
Last Tuesday, Penn State put together a poor performance in Piscataway, New Jersey, against Rutgers and lost, 65-45.
But against Michigan, Penn State basketball was on it’s A-game and pounded the Wolverines.
Jalen Pickett did what Jalen Pickett does, scoring 25 points and adding eight rebounds and seven assists. Mikey Henn, who hadn’t scored a point in any of Penn State’s nine previous Big Ten games, scored 10 after getting the start down low in place of Kebba Njie.
Here are 22 tweets about Penn State’s 22-point win.
Micah Shewsberry.
More Plays Than Broadway.

Been saying it since the beginning, Micah Shrewsberry is indeed the truth and will lead them to the promise land. 14-7 now, realistically they can get to 20+ wins and that should get them in the tourney. https://t.co/4nHVWXoRHK

Jalen Pickett with 25, eight rebounds, and eight assists today against Michigan.
Another example of a COVID senior who is FLOURISHING because he came back for an ADDITIONAL year or eligibility. https://t.co/I17zDvAbOh

Micah Shrewsberry's first win against Michigan is Penn State's biggest win over Michigan since GoPSU started keeping track back in 2004.
The largest win since then was 15 points in 2009. Penn State just won by 22.
A big-time statement win for Penn State.

Micah Shrewsberry's name is going to appear in coaching candidacies with each big win, especially if Penn State makes the tournament. That's just reality. https://t.co/siXYCgFrBw

Penn State men’s hoops improves to 5-5 in Big Ten play with a 83-61 rout of Michigan. Nittany Lions travel to Purdue next, but after that a more favorable schedule could continue the NCAA Tournament dream.

Very solid win. If only you guys can play like this on the road in conference games, I think you may have something here. #WeAre

Changing the starting lineup was the key. Nice job coach! Not allowing the opposing big to get going kept us in the game mentally and allowed our confidence to grow as we made shots. Nice team win!

They should have been expected to win. Winning by 22 (and it wasn’t that close), in this league is impressive, tho.
