This week in Big Ten basketball: Michigan battles rival Michigan State and Rutgers

The Michigan Wolverines just can’t get things going on the basketball court this year. They lost two games last week, at Purdue and at home to Iowa, and are now 7-13 overall and 2-7 in the Big Ten. The struggling Wolverines have now lost eight of nine, with their only win coming against Ohio State two weeks ago.

Nobody expected them to go to West Lafayette to beat the Boilermakers without Dug McDaniel, but a home game against the Hawkeyes was definitely winnable. They once again led a game at halftime, but couldn’t hold the lead and lost 88-78.
