The No. 2 ranked Michigan Wolverines are hitting the road for two games for the second consecutive weekend. This time, they are heading to South Bend to take on the struggling No. 16 ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Last year, Notre Dame gave the Wolverines problems with its defensive style and opportunistic offense. The Irish helped deny Michigan the regular season Big Ten title and were the only team to sweep the Wolverines in 2021, and they did so twice.
However, Michigan finally got revenge against Notre Dame in the Big Ten Tournament with a 2-1 victory in the semifinals round before claiming the tournament championship
This year, Notre Dame has struggled to begin the season.
