We’ve seen this game from the Michigan men’s basketball team about a dozen times this season. The Wolverines surrendered a lead after playing well in the second half and ultimately lost because they couldn’t execute in the final few possessions. I could copy and paste that last sentence and it would fit for half of my takeaways columns this year.
With Michigan losing to Illinois earlier this week, this was a must-win game for the Wolverines. They are on the outside looking in when it comes to March Madness, so they’ll take every opportunity to earn a Quad 1 win they can get, especially one on the road against a good Indiana team.
