Michigan basketball clinched a share of the Big Ten title on Tuesday night, thanks to a 77-67 win over Minnesota that was far from memorable.
Michigan needed to make 14 3-pointers to best the Gophers, who made 12. They averaged 1.02 points per possession, with six scholarship players not playing.
A win is a win. Michigan was fresh off playing the No. 3 team, now No. 1, in the country. It was the most-hyped non-conference game I can remember in recent memory, and you could understand a letdown.
There are some things the Wolverines need to fix, though, before March Madness, and before they attempt to cut down the nets in Chicago at the Big Ten tournament.
