Michigan basketball just went 2-0 during the toughest stretch of its season thus far. The Wolverines took down undefeated Nebraska in Ann Arbor and then defeated #7 Michigan State in East Lansing. Those wins have put Michigan atop the Big Ten standings, and have significantly increased the Wolverines' chance at winning the Big Ten regular season title.
Michigan will now face a lighter schedule, with their next ranked opponent being Purdue on February 17th. The Wolverines will then proceed to end their season with a gauntlet, playing Purdue, Duke, Illinois, and Michigan State within their final six games.
