In what seemed to be a must win game for Indiana’s March Madness hopes, the Hoosiers erased a 17-point deficit in the second half to defeat Michigan and move on to the Big Ten quarterfinals.
The Wolverines came out of the gate strong, opening up a 15-point lead in the first half and entering halftime up 41–28. The second half started similar to the first, and Michigan’s lead reached 17 with 12 minutes remaining in the game.
However, Indiana fought back, executing a 20–2 run over the next six minutes of game time to take a 63–62 lead.
