Michigan Basketball: 3 Predictions for Wolverines against Toledo
Who wins?
I have a feeling that this is going to be a tight game for the Wolverines. Toledo is a proven winner in the MAC and the Rockets will be fired up for this opportunity.
Plus, anytime you play a team that shoots the way they did, upsets are possible because we all know the 3-point shot is the ultimate equalizer.
On the Michigan side of things, I would expect a rebound from Isaiah Livers who was just 1-of-6 from beyond the arc on Sunday. He won’t have another poor game and I expect something closer to the 15-20 points we have seen most of this season from him.
Franz Wagner is still the big question for me. Will he finally get it going this game? His best outing so far was a 14-point effort against Ball State and he only took six shots in that one.
If Wagner, Livers and Mike Smith struggle to score the way they did against Central Florida, I’d expect a tight finish. There will be some improvement there and Dickinson will have another big game, which will be enough to get the win, but it won’t be easy.
