While Gonzaga and Baylor stand out, Juwan Howard is quietly building a contender at Michigan

Gonzaga looks like the team to beat this year, Baylor is a close second and the third hottest team in college basketball is ... Michigan?

It’s true.

The Wolverines are now 11-0 after destroying No. 9 Wisconsin on Tuesday night, 77-54. Wisconsin was a fierce opponent coming in, having only lost two games prior. They beat No. 12 Michigan State on Christmas Day by double digits and won two straight heading into the top-10 matchup with No. 7 Michigan. But it was never close Tuesday. The Wolverines led by 40 at one point and had a 43-6 run bridging the first and second half.
