Michigan basketball didn’t just beat Minnesota Wednesday night, it dominated the 16th-ranked Gophers and proved its a Big Ten contender.

This game against Minnesota was supposed to be Michigan basketball‘s toughest test. But for the second game ina row, Juwan Howard cleared the bench in a blowout win well before it was over.

At least in terms of game time, because this game was over when Michigan basketball opened the second half on a 33-8 run.
