Wolverine Wednesday: You Can't Go 2-0 this Week without a Win in Mackey
The BIG HOUSE BlogMackey Arena is a really hard place to win. Purdue Basketball is always solid since the days the Big Dog was running the court. When Purdue is the Pre-Season #1 and currently in the top 10, it's even tougher.
Michigan put together one of its best performances in a true road game. Michigan has played better but those were all neutral site games. Michigan started shooting the 3 well in the first half and grew the lead to 20 early and was up by 16 at the half. Everyone expected the Boilermakers to make a run in the 2nd, they played better but only got within 8 points or so of the Wolverines, who always seemed to have an answer and a defensive stop when Purdue inched closer.
