Michigan Basketball has been playing with fire, but the Wolverines will need to be the one wielding the flamethrower against Michigan State on Friday night:
Both teams enter the game red hot. Michigan has won five straight since dropping its first (and so far only) game of the season on Jan. 10, highlighted by Tuesday’s heavyweight fight in Ann Arbor. MSU, meanwhile, has won seven in a row — needing overtime on Tuesday at Rutgers, winning 88-79, to keep that streak alive.
