Bloomington, Ind. — History has never favored Michigan in the unfriendly confines of Assembly Hall.
On Friday night, though, the Wolverines couldn’t have gotten off to a more favorable start.
No. 5 Michigan dominated the first five minutes, jumped out to a 20-2 lead over Indiana and never looked back in a 69-46, wire-to-wire victory to sweep the regular-season series.
Freshman forward Ignas Brazdeikis scored 20 to lead a balanced effort for Michigan (19-1, 8-1 Big Ten), which won consecutive road games at Indiana for the first time since 1985-86.
