Live updates: UM handles Florida State surge at start of second half

Florida State comes alive to open half, Michigan still leads by 10

Brandon Johns gets inside for 2 points to open the half, putting Michigan up 34-21. Anthony Polite matches with a pair of free throws at the other end.

Franz Wagner drives, finds Johns inside, and Johns misses both to allow M.J. Walker a layup at the other end that cuts the Wolverines' lead to 9. Then Florida State forces a five-second violation.

Raiquan Gray takes a personal foul just moments later, and that's huge. He averaged more than 12 points per game this season and came out early in the first half because of foul trouble.
