The Michigan Wolverines got off to a rocky start in the second half, committing their first turnover in nearly 17 minutes of game action and not scoring a field goal until the 17:23 mark. The Syracuse Orange are attempting to chip away at a double-digit deficit, and a bucket and foul by Rakeem Christmas brought them within seven points.
