Is everyone alive? Is everyone OK? Michigan basketball is very good at making our lives stressful, and they had to do it again against Northwestern on Thursday afternoon in the Big Ten Tournament.
In one of the most exciting and stressful games of the season, the Wolverines went into overtime with the Wildcats and just barely managed to stave off a comeback.
For a while it looked like Michigan was going to walk away with a relatively easy victory. A 13-point lead in the first half was occasionally picked at by Northwestern, but the Wolverines were always able to pull away again.
