In what seemed to be a must-win game for Indiana’s March Madness hopes, the Hoosiers erased a 17-point deficit in the second half to defeat Michigan, 74-69, and move on to the Big Ten quarterfinals.
The Wolverines came out of the gate strong, opening up a 15-point lead in the first half and entering halftime up 41–28. The second half started similar to the first, and Michigan’s lead reached 17 with 12 minutes remaining in the game.
However, Indiana fought back, executing a 20–2 run over the next six minutes of game time to take a 63–62 lead. The momentum didn’t stop there, as Indiana completed a 28–4 run by the time it was over. Michigan went without a field goal for more than 11 minutes during that stretch.
