What channel is Michigan basketball vs. Rutgers on today? Time, TV schedule for game
When it rains, it pours. That's been the story of the Michigan basketball season.
Nothing has come easy for the Wolverines this year as they've tried to replace the production hole left behind by two first-round picks (Kobe Bufkin and Jett Howard) and one of the best players in the nation transferring, Hunter Dickinson. The team has also been dealing with health issues for its head coach, a costly suspension for road games from probably its best player, Dug McDaniel, and a litany of other issues.

The whole cast of issues was on display during the second half of Michigan's 81-62 loss to Michigan State in which they completely wasted a really strong first-half display. The Spartans forced turnovers and made things tough on both sides for the Wolverines as they scrambled to stop what quickly became a snowball rolling down a mountain.
