The offense has picked up for the Wolverines, but they're still trailing 36-29 with 15:56 remaining.
Cameron Krutwig started the half by pushing Loyola's lead to double-digits with an and-1. Moe Wagner answered with a ferocious dunk on the other end. Michigan got a few stops before Duncan Robinson finally hit from 3-point land to cut the Ramblers lead to five at 32-27. Ben Richardson answered with a drive to the bucket for a Loyola basket, but Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman finally got his first bucket of the night in transition. Clayton Custer got on the board for Loyola, and Michigan turned it over on a shot-clock violation on the next possession.
