In a game that probably reminded some Michigan basketball fans of the 2013 season, the Wolverines nearly saw their undefeated season come to an end.
Penn State had a shot to win the game on the final possession. It hit the back of the rim, and Michigan basketball survived for a 74-72 win as a 24.5-point favorite.
Penn State is ranked outside the top 100 in the Kenpom rankings. The Nittany Lions were 0-3 in the Big Ten. Michigan turned the ball over too much, got beat up on the glass, and didn't shoot well.
