More Purdue Coverage

The Michigan Daily live blogged the game. Also, articles in the Indianapolis Star, Mlive.com, Detroit Free Press and Journal Courier Online.

From the Daily's live blog:
No one saw this coming. Purdue is probably having its worst game of the year (confirmed by the Purdue student paper). Michigan has done a great job on the defensive end, preventing the Boilermakers from having their way. Seven different Wolverines have contributed to the 19 point lead. That’s right, a 19 point lead. They have not limited a team to 15 points or less since November 25, 2007 against Belmont. Michigan has been looking into the paint much more often that it seems in the past, with Jones and Phillips being key factors in that. It has taken 19 shots inside and is faring just better than 50 percent. The Wolverines have 17 points off turnovers compared to Purdue’s none. Considering that Purdue has just 12 turnovers, that’s about .667 for Michigan following a Purdue miscue. But now we enter the second half, and the Boilermakers should be making a run right out of the locker room.
