Line up change

Michigan has the depth to do that,...

I think it can work at any level with any talent...

Even a move like the one Kentucky head coach Joe B. Hall made in 1978 can get the desired response...

In the 1978 NCAA Tournament -- Kentucky faced Florida State and played lazily in the first half
and ALL five starters were benched to start the 2nd half..
Seriously -- he was playing for the chanced to advance and be the National Champions
and he began the 2nd half with subs & deep subs...trailing 39-32...

Guess what -- those guys played their butts off and stayed in the game for nearly 10 minutes -
battling back to 45-44.
Then when Hall re-inserted the starters, those guys finally played like their starting positions depended on a little effort and hustle and the went on to a 14-0 run and Kentucky ultimately won the game and then went on the 1978 National Championship....I know - I was there at this game in Knoxville.
It was a shocking move which had UK fans totally stunned to see their All Americans sitting on the bench!
But this one move alone cemented Joe B. Hall into legend for his coaching ability.

Not necessarily a line-up change, but when the game is out of reach, which has been the case too many times, clear the bench and see what the deep reserves can do.
