Michigan coach talks about his team's performance and the final minute of Tuesday's 70-69 loss. James Hawkins, The Detroit News
Ann Arbor — It was right there and then it was gone, the ball, the possession, the game. It was a brutal way to lose, and yet when the Wolverines shake it off, they should extract two important elements from it.
Encouragement and resolve. Michigan should be encouraged it rallied and could have — should have — beaten No. 5 Purdue. And then the Wolverines should be resolved to avoid the type of mistakes that cost them, as the Boilermakers pulled out a 70-69 thriller Tuesday night at Crisler Center.
