The game at Crisler Center saw the home team, the Wolverines, take control early on and maintain their lead throughout. The first quarter ended with Michigan ahead by six points. Their momentum continued into the second quarter where they extended their lead by nine more points. The third quarter was relatively low-scoring for both teams, but it was in the final quarter that the Wolverines truly shone, adding an overwhelming 28 points to their tally.
The offensive efforts of Michigan were particularly notable; they shot an impressive 50 percent from beyond the arc and made 13 three-pointers during the game.
