The No. 6 Michigan Wolverines head to Fort Worth on Friday night for a matchup with TCU at Schollmaier Arena. This will be one of the headline games of the weekend as Michigan looks to continue its unbeaten start under Dusty May. The Wolverines survived an overtime thriller against Wake Forest and enter at 2-0 with plenty of momentum. They opened their season by putting up 121 points against Oakland before outlasting the Demon Deacons 85-84 behind a late free throw from Elliot Cadeau.
Michigan is one of fifteen unbeaten teams in the Big Ten, and early signs point to this group being capable of competing near the top of the conference. Morez Johnson leads the team with 17 points per game, and the Wolverines have shown strong balance across the roster through their first two games.
TCU comes into this game with a 2-1 record after recovering from an unexpected opening loss to New Orleans. Jamie Dixon’s team responded well with a 41 point win over Saint Francis and followed that with a victory over Lamar. The Horned Frogs still feel like a work in progress but have enough athleticism and depth to challenge Michigan on their home floor. Forward David Punch has been the early standout, averaging 14 points per game, while Iowa transfer Brock Harding has played an important role with six assists per game.
This will be the third meeting between these programs, with Michigan winning the previous two including a 76-64 victory last November. With TCU looking to make up for last year’s result and erase the sting of their early season loss, the atmosphere should be charged.

This matchup should deliver a competitive game between two power conference teams with ambitious seasons ahead. Michigan has looked sharp early and appears capable of living up to its preseason expectations, while TCU will enter hungry after last year's loss and the stumble to open this season. With both teams eager to build their non conference resumes, this Friday night game should be one of the better matchups on the slate.
Enjoy the action and the full night of college basketball ahead.
