7. Michigan (19-9, 9-6)

Caris LeVert‘s triumphant return to the Wolverines lasted all of one game, as the Senior guard has missed the last two contests.  It was a tough week for the Wolverines as they lost at Ohio State in the infamous “floor cam” game last Tuesday night.  No shame in losing at Maryland, as the Wolverines battled the Terrapins all the way to the end.

Without LeVert, this team is missing another difference maker on the bench and much like the Boilermakers, Michigan has struggled to defeat the Big Ten’s top competition, except for a win at home against the aforementioned Terrapins back on January 12th.  Michigan has a couple great opportunities to lock up an NCAA tournament bid, most notably its final game of the regular season when Iowa travels to Ann Arbor
