That's the one stat I try to keep track of as much as possible throughout the season ... It's understanding every possession is golden and anytime you're playing a great team like Indiana or anyone else in the Big Ten, you can't just not get a shot at the basket. You need to be able to run your offense and take care of the basketball.
If Michigan continues to improve and the conference can convince Northwestern to not accept bowl bids ever again under any and all circumstances, the Big Ten could maybe even see a winning bowl season next year.
It's heightened a little bit ... No question, when you're playing your rival and both are in contention for the Big Ten championship, it makes it a little more special.More quotes »
