Chicago — One day after making history for the longest win streak in the Big Ten tournament, Michigan will have a shot to make some more.

Michigan sits one victory away from becoming the first Big Ten team to three-peat in the conference tournament after hammering Minnesota, 76-49, in Saturday’s semifinals at the United Center.

Michigan (28-5) will meet Michigan State, a 67-55 winner over Wisconsin, in the championship game at 3:30 p.m. Sunday. It’ll mark the second straight weekend the rivals will meet with a title on the line.
