The nation's No. 1 team faced one of its toughest tests of the season in a road game against No. 7 Purdue on Tuesday.
It passed with no issue. Michigan opened up a 16-point halftime lead and went on to a 91-80 win over a Purdue team that entered Tuesday's game with two wins over top-10 opponents and riding a four-game win streak.
But the Boilermakers were no match for a Michigan team that continues to look like the best in the nation. The win will bolster Michigan's case for the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA tournament, a path that was cleared last week when previously undefeated Arizona lost two straight games.
