No. 2 Indiana beats No. 7 Michigan 72-71 for Hoosiers' 1st outright Big Ten title since 1992
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Cody Zeller made a go-ahead layup with 13 seconds left and altered Trey Burke's shot at the other end, lifting No. 2 Indiana to a 72-71 victory over No. 7 Michigan on Sunday that gave the Hoosiers their first outright Big Ten title in two decades.
The Hoosiers (26-5, 14-4) trailed by five points in the last minute but took advantage when the Wolverines (25-6, 12-6) were unable to seal it at the foul line.
A couple of Michigan's rivals surely wish the Wolverines had won.
