We need power going into the tournament. Butler is no Notre Dame. The Irish pummeled Michigan just five days ago in a 5-1 romp. The No. 1 team took advantage of a poor-playing Michigan team, a team that needed to regroup. Sunday's victory does not inflate egos, but rather reassures the Wolverines that they can win, and win big.
Big wins are nothing new for Michigan, though.
Last year, the Wolverines beat Butler 6-0. And also in 1999, Michigan took first place at the Big Ten Tournament. I don't believe that this year will be any different. Inc. Click here to view our Privacy Policy.
