Michigan Basketball: 3-point struggles doom Wolverines vs Ohio State

When Michigan basketball is knocking down 3-pointers and limiting other teams from beyond the arc, the Wolverines are just about unbeatable. But that didn’t happen Sunday against Ohio State.

Instead, it was another cold-shooting day for the Wolverines on the road. Michigan basketball went 7-of-26 (26.9 percent) from the 3-point line while Ohio State was 11-of-21 and shot 52.4 percent.

Forget the percentage, which was much higher for Ohio State, Michigan scored 21 points on 3-pointers. Ohio State scored 33 and in the end, the Buckeyes won 77-63, so the 3-point line was the difference.
