The Big Ten Tournament begins this week and the Michigan Wolverines already have their opening-round opponent set in the Indiana Hoosiers. They got to this point after stunning the Ohio State Buckeyes in Columbus with an impressive 75-69 win, doing so without Hunter Dickinson.
Before the Wolverines’ final three-game stretch against Michigan State, Iowa and Ohio State, just about every analyst was saying they needed two wins out of the three games to lock in a spot in the NCAA Tournament. After accomplishing just that, it feels as though Michigan is sitting on the right side of the bubble with just the conference tournament games to play.
