What is the story about?

Earlier this week, we asked fans how many games they believe Michigan will win in the NCAA Tournament. The results are in, and they are optimistic.

55% of voters believe Michigan will win six games, which would mean a national championship victory. 21% voted for four wins, 15% voted for five wins, while just 9% think three or fewer wins.

Per FanDuel Sportsbook, Michigan currently has the third-best odds of winning that national championship at +420, with Arizona at No. 2 (+200) and Duke at No. 1 (+390).

Michigan, the No. 1-seed in the Midwest Region, plays No. 16-seed Howard in the Round of 64 on Friday afternoon. Michigan is 31-3 on the season, while Howard is 24-10.
