Michigan (25-11) is talented, confident, and on a red-hot roll after winning 11 of 13 contests. The Wolverines took the Big Ten Tourney and are 9-3 ATS against an opponent with a winning percentage above .600. Michigan leads the country in fewest turnovers per game with just 9.2 miscues per contest and is #11 nationally in free-throw percentage, shooting a school-record 77.6 percent from the charity stripe. Michigan is in familiar surroundings at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, a site that frequently hosts the Big Ten Tournament. They match up well with Louisville in what shapes up as a close one, so back the confident dog. Play Michigan.
