Michigan basketball destroys Wisconsin, 77-54, to make clear statement on their potential

If there was anyone who wasn't already sold on Michigan basketball, Tuesday night at Crisler Center would have changed their mind.

The fifth-ranked Wolverines put together one of the most impressive performances in all of college basketball this season in a startling 77-54 blowout win over No. 9 Wisconsin.

Michigan stifled the Badgers' offense, ending the first half with a 14-0 run over the final 5:27 to take a 17-point lead into halftime. And the beatdown didn't stop there: The Wolverines opened the second half with a 29-3 run to extend their lead to 40.
