It's halftime and Michigan is still hanging in there. Considering the turnover problems (nine already) and Dion Harris' cold shooting (1-for-8), Tommy Amaker can't be too disappointed with his team's 34-29 deficit.

The key to a comeback is twofold. First, the Wolverines have to free Harris up for some open looks. He's had two good shots this half, and he made one. Secondly, where's the defense? Ohio State is shooting 54 percent from the floor, shooting down Courtney Sims' assertation yesterday that every team struggles shooting at the United Center. Michigan's hanging tough because of a 21-8 rebounding edge. Something tells me Thad Matta will correct that.
