Open shots lead to 3-point shooting frenzy for Michigan in blowout over Purdue

On just one day rest, and right after shooting 24% from beyond the arc on Tuesday against Penn State, the Michigan Wolverines exploded for 12 three-pointers in a 82-58 drubbing of the Purdue Boilermakers. Michigan shot 57.1% from three-point land in the victory.

The only time Michigan made more threes in one game this season was against Nebraska on Dec. 7, when the Wolverines hit 15 of them. But from a combination of made three-pointers (12) three-point field goal percentage (57.1%), who the opponent was and how important this game was, you could argue this was the best three-point shooting performance of the year.
