May thought his team played hard; he liked their defense, free-throw shooting (17 for 21, including some critical makes), and the fact that had just one turnover in the final five minutes. He credited Oregon’s ever-changing defense for bogging down Michigan’s attack late and praised Will Tschetter for his performance off the bench.

Oregon played better and harder at Michigan than the past two weeks, but the final result was unchanged in a fourth straight loss.

Will Tschetter had a season-high 17 points, Danny Wolf scored 10 of his 15 points in the first half and Vladislav Goldin had nine of his 15 after halftime to help No. 24 Michigan hold off Oregon 80-76
