Cincinnati

Tonight is the first road game of the season, against the University of Cincinnati. Both teams have new coaches and there isn't too much to go on with the Bearcats:

The Bearcats were 12-4 at home last year and likely won't top that mark this season with a first-year head coach and second-team All-Big East guard Treasure Humphries' graduation. Shelly Bellman (10.6 ppg, 6.4 rpg in '06-'07) leads a Cincinnati squad that returns just three of six players who started at least 19 games last year.

Because of that, Michigan doesn't have much to work with for preparation.

"New coach, no videotape," Michigan coach Kevin Borseth said. "We don't know a lot about them other than the coach was at Lafayette last year, and maybe some of the stuff he did there will carry over to this game."

This is the first of six straight road games for the Wolverines.
