OT: #2 Michigan nips Northwestern

[DukeSlater]

Just for some context: Mighty Michigan (23-1, 13-1) trailed Northwestern (10-15, 2-12) at the half last night 44-35. Yes, Michigan came back to win, 87-75, but it might be worth noting that Iowa isn't the only good team that can have its hands full with the bottom teams in the league. The worst teams are usually competitive against even the best teams. Anyway, thought it was worth pointing out.

True. But the difference is Michigan won their game. That’s what the better teams do. Right now, Iowa isn’t one of the better teams in the Big 10. But Ben will get them there.
