Manny Harris scored 14 points and Kelvin Grady added 12 as Michigan outlasted Illinois 49-43. The teams combined to shoot just 31 percent from the floor, with Michigan winning despite hitting just 30 percent of their shots. Harris and Grady were the only Wolverines to reach double figures, while Calvin Brock led Illinois with 12 off the bench and Trent Meacham added 11. Michigan appeared to have the game locked up when they took a six-point lead into the final minute. Brock was then fouled by Ekpe Udoh while making a 3-pointer, giving him a chance for a rare four-point play. But he missed the free throw and Michigan clinched the game from the line. The offenses bottomed out midway through the second half when, in a five-minute stretch, Michigan outscored Illinois 4-0. Both teams struggled in the first half as well, combining to shoot just 34 percent from the floor and turn the ball over 13 times. The Illini led 24-22.
