0:00.0	Coming into Tuesday night's Big Ten opener for the Wolverines at Wisconsin, Michigan had earned just three victories at the Cole Center this century.
0:09.6	2014.
0:10.6	That team went on to win the Big Ten and play in the Elite 8.
0:14.5	2018.
0:15.4	That team went to play on a Monday night in April in the national championship game.

1:23.0	They were going up against someone their own size or two players their own size.
1:28.5	Yet Danny Wolf really stabilized things until his second foul on the first half.
1:33.0	And then Vlad Golden, who still had some of those issues we've seen from him a lot this year
