Defense steps up late in the second half to help the No. 13 Terrapins secure a first-round bye in next week’s Big Ten tournament.

If Michigan was able to take care of the basketball better, they probably win this game. At the end of the day, Maryland deserves a lot of credit for how they were able to defend and make things difficult for the Wolverines in this game. However, the Wolverines also made a lot of silly mistakes that were self-inflicted.

The regular season is winding down and the Big Ten Tournament is around the corner and on Wednesday, March 5 the No. 17 Michigan Wolverines host the No. 13 Maryland Terrapins at the Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Mich.
